Understand how your data is used when you drive your Singapore car into Malaysia.
In a world where it feels like everyone is tracking everything, it's totally normal to wonder about data privacy. When you sign up for a VEP, you're handing over your personal and car details to the Malaysian authorities. So, what are they actually doing with that info? What are they tracking?
At MyMechanic, we're big believers in transparency. We're not just here to get you a VEP; we want you to understand the system. So, let's pull back the curtain and clear up any confusion about the data side of things.
First off, the VEP system is mostly just a tool for identification and paying tolls. It's not as scary as it sounds. Here's what it actually keeps a record of:
Just as important is knowing what the VEP system *doesn't* do. Let's bust a few common myths.
The little RFID tag on your windscreen is 'passive'. That means it has no battery and no GPS chip. It can't track you driving around KL or see that you're parked at a shopping mall. It only wakes up when it passes an official RFID reader at the border or a toll booth.
The VEP system has no idea how fast you're driving. Speeding tickets still come the old-fashioned way: from the police speed cameras.
The system isn't connected to your car's computer. It knows nothing about how you drive, your fuel economy, or what you're listening to on the radio.
We get it. Your personal data is a big deal, and you need to know it's being handled properly. When you ask MyMechanic to handle your VEP application, you're trusting us with your information, and we take that seriously.
