We're not Singaporeans!!!

If you see a Licence plate that goes SAA 2222 D, SK 2222, SD 2222, SS 2222, ST 2222, SU 2222 or SB 2222, please keep this in mind: IT'S NOT A SINGAPOREAN CAR!!!

It's a Sabah-registered plate.

And the second alphabet actually refers to particular region in Sabah too:

SAA (or SA if it's an older car.... they ran out of numbers so they had to add another A to the original SA): Kota Kinabalu.

SK: Kudat

SD: Lahad Datu

SS: Sandakan

ST: Tawau

SU: Keningau

SB: Beaufort

(SL / LA refers to Labuan registered cars but Labuan is a Federal Territory, no longer Sabah land; SL are the older plates. LA are the newer plates; actually I think there are LB and LC plates from Labuan around too)

I think Singaporean plates are all SFF, SGF, etc.... (starts with S... three letters... I think the older plates are like SAF 2222 or something like that)

When it doubt, just look at the size of the fonts on the licence plate. They're bigger if they're from Singapore...

Sooooooooo.... the next time you see a licence plate that starts with "S", remember, it probably isn't a Singaporean car!!!
