If we had to guess, here are 12 things car owners are likely to do once the Circuit Breaker (CB) measures are lifted.
Most of us have been working from home, browsing social media, eating takeaways, and eating all day. And if you are like us, you will constantly think about what you are going to do when you are finally free.
It is perfectly normal and easy to identify. You are finally taking out your car for a long-awaited journey of joy, but what is your first destination?
We’ve made an extensive list of possibilities, so let’s see if we hit some of theirs!
1) Drive to JB to makan or vacation
If you haven’t met your partner during CB, then we can probably guess that this is the first destination that comes to mind.
From sipping a hot plate of bak kut teh from Soon Soon Heng in front of KSL City to partying with delicious L 渌 渌 ‘Lok Lok’, the possibilities are endless. Once you’re done with your meal, you probably want to end the night with a nice relaxing massage or karaoke session.
After CB, we are sure that many of you will be reaching out to JB, which is truly an affordable way to spend your extra savings by getting stuck at home.
2) Gasoline pump at JB
Since you’re already driving to JB for makan At your favorite stalls, why not fill the gas tank with some gasoline, too?
Despite the 3/4 tank rule, we know that many drivers will not be able to resist the excitement and joy of pumping cheap gasoline from our northern neighbors.
If you want to avoid running into a fuel control, you should consider downloading the Motorist app. Once downloaded, look in our Checkpoint feature for a useful feature to avoid prying eyes of custom officers.
3) Send the car to get ready or wash the car
Has your car been neglected and neglected during this CB period? If so, you probably want to make sure you’re in top shape before you meet up with your friends or family.
In addition to a car wash, some of us might even consider a complete grooming package, which includes cleaning and interior car detailing. This will help you get rid of any thin layers of dust that may have formed on surfaces like the dash and seats.
4) Go for car inspection
For some of us, we must clear our overdue car inspection before anything else. So be sure to check your inspection date and do it as soon as possible, especially those with your circulation tax due after the Circuit Breaker period.

5) Send your car for service
If you lost your regular service due to CB measures, you probably want to send your car to the shop as soon as possible.
We hope that by June 1, 2020, most garages and service centers are open, otherwise personal safety could be compromised while driving.

6) Meet your kakis for dinner
Do you miss your night adventures with your friends? Well, once you lift up the CB, you can finally run and hug them like those Korean dramas you’ve been eating at home.
We’re pretty sure most Singaporeans can’t wait for Circuit Breaker to finish to catch up with old friends and giggle over unpacked food.
7) Attend car meetings
If you follow Motorist closely, you could be a car enthusiast who lacks regular meetings. Joining cars is how you love meeting others, and you just can’t wait to talk about the latest car news and gossip.
So when CB measures finally lift, we are confident that you will take this opportunity to attend or organize a car meeting with other members of the car club.
8) Skip restaurants in Singapore
We all know the pain of not being able to dine at your favorite restaurants in Singapore. Sure, delivery options are available, but there’s nothing more satisfying than eating a freshly prepared meal.
Regardless of the kitchen, we know that most of you will call family and friends to join you at your favorite places to eat once the circuit breaker measurements are lifted.
9) McDonald’s drives by
A McDonald’s car ride has always been a saving grace for drivers, especially when we are suddenly hungry on the road. You’ve really missed ordering a delicious McSpicy burger with big fries, without leaving the car.
According to our driving community, this was one of their most missed activities, believe it or not.
10) Visit your parents
Since CB measures prohibit us from meeting anyone who does not live under the same roof, visiting our parents and older relatives may be what we miss the most.
Yes, we can make video calls, but it is always different when we meet them in real life. Therefore, for some of us, we will head first to our parents’ place!
11) Share a car with your friends
We are sure that we all miss our friends and when you have a car, sharing the trip with them and playing your favorite songs is the best kind of outing.
Singing songs, eating snacks in the car and exchanging funny stories is where all the fun of sharing the journey is.
We can assume that picking up your friends will be one of the things you will want to do once the measures are lifted.
12) Sell your car
Since used car dealers are considered non-essential during this breaker period, there are definitely some of us who had to put aside our plans to sell our vehicles.
On June 1, this could be our top priority as our vehicles will continue to depreciate every day, regardless of condition and use.
