Charged for not attending IPPT RT. Summary trial at CMPB soon. What will happen to me?
‘No time’ for IPPT and RT because life has not been good
As we all know, we went through a tough time during the recent pandemic. As for me, i lost my job and had to settle with doing full time food delivery.
No job is easy. Mine was no different. Had little time to rest or even sleep. Therefore, i did not have time/energy to go for IPPT RT sessions.
his is going to be my 3rd offence. The 1st and 2nd time was because i overlooked due to office work being crazy busy. I truly regret this and have learned my lesson.
Definitely not going to repeat it ever again. Does anyone have any experience being charged for the 3rd time?
What can i expect?
Here are what netizens think
- Lol I got charged 5 times already, each time fine increase 100, but for the last rt, I didn’t attended the last 2 round so no fine. As long you don’t give your Co some f- up excuse, he probably fine you or CMPB charge you a higher fine.
- Before your charge date just book and attend some RT sessions. During the charge they’ll look at all the evidence available including the RT sessions you just went for even if it’s the very evening before less than a day ago. The worst thing you can do is just do nothing and “mentally prepare”.
- Defaulted thrice in a row. First time was given a warning, second was $100 fine. Third was a $300 fine.
- Relax, it’s only your “third” time. High chance that you will let off with a fine. SAF as much as possible, tries to avoid putting what are essentially civilians, to DB nowadays.
And we totally understand your situation, though try your best to do NS fit from this year onwards to avoid this PITA situation.
