2024年7月2日，新加坡交通部长徐芳达在国会书面答复义顺集选区议员陈浍敏有关车辆停车位分类的标准问题。
以下内容为新加坡眼根据国会英文资料翻译整理：
按重量而非大小对车辆进行分类和区分允许停车位的理由
74. 陈浍敏（义顺集选区议员）女士询问交能部长：
(i) 按重量而非大小对车辆进行分类的理由是什么？
(ii) 按重量而非大小区分货车允许停车位的理由是什么？
徐芳达（交通部长）先生：在世界许多国家，包括英国及欧盟成员国，商用车，特别是货车，都是按最大载重量 (MLW) 进行分类的。载重量超过其设计重量的车辆在紧急情况下无法快速停车，也无法在弯道上有效转向。
根据车辆分类，货车允许停车位也基于重量。考虑到额外的安全考虑，即此类车辆在住宅区过夜停车，规定载重量超过 5,000 公斤的重型货车必须在午夜12:00 至上午 6:00 期间停放在指定的重型车辆停车场。
陈浍敏（义顺集选区议员） 女士询问国家发展部部长：
是否会考虑在住宅区内为依靠车辆（如拖车和货运车)谋生的个体经营者分配单独的货车专用季节停车位？
李智陞先生（国家发展部长）：组屋（HDB）停车场主要是为了满足居民的停车需求。对于季节性停车，居民的自备车辆或公司注册车辆（包括个体经营者用于谋生的车辆）可优先停放。
一般而言，出于安全考虑和对居民可能造成的不便，空载重量超过 2,000 公斤的大型商用车辆（如货车、拖车和货运车）不得停放在组屋停车场。组屋多层停车场的设计也无法承受超过这一限制的车辆重量。如果车辆能够停在停车场内，不会妨碍或危及其他停车场使用者，也不会造成不便，则建屋局可以根据具体情况考虑在地面停车场进行季节性停车。
以下是英文质询内容：
RATIONALE FOR CATEGORISING VEHICLES AND DIFFERENTIATING ALLOWABLE PARKING SPACES FOR VEHICLES BY WEIGHT INSTEAD OF SIZE
74 Ms Carrie Tan asked the Minister for Transport what is the rationale for (i) categorising vehicles by weight instead of size and (ii) differentiating allowable parking spaces for lorries by weight instead of size.
Mr Chee Hong Tat: Commercial vehicles, in particular goods vehicles, are categorised by Maximum Laden Weight (MLW) in numerous countries around the world, including the United Kingdom and European Union member states. Vehicles that are loaded beyond their design weight are less able to stop quickly during an emergency and steer effectively at road bends.
Stemming from vehicle categorisation, the allowable parking spaces for lorries are also based on weight. Heavy goods vehicles with an MLW that exceeds 5,000 kilogrammes are mandated to park at designated heavy vehicle parks from 12.00 am to 6.00 am, given the additional safety considerations, namely, such vehicles parking at residential areas overnight.
Ms Carrie Tan asked the Minister for National Development whether the Ministry will consider allocating separate and dedicated season parking lots for lorries within housing estates for sole proprietors who depend on their vehicles, such as tow trucks and goods delivery vans, for their livelihood.
Mr Desmond Lee: The Housing and Development Board (HDB) parking lots are provided primarily to serve the parking needs of residents. For season parking, priority is accorded to residents who either have their own vehicle or a company-registered vehicle, including those used by sole proprietors for their livelihood.
In general, large commercial vehicles, such as lorries, tow trucks and goods delivery vans, with unladen weight exceeding 2,000 kilogrammes are not allowed to park at HDB car parks due to safety concerns and potential disamenities to residents. HDB multi-storey car parks are also not designed to withstand vehicular weights beyond this limit. HDB can consider season parking requests at surface car parks on a case-by-case basis, if the vehicle is able to fit within a parking lot, does not obstruct or endanger other car park users and does not create disamenities.
