Answer:"In time" usually has an implicit "for (some event)", whereas "on time" means "before some deadline". The "event" could be a deadline, but in that case "on time" is much more common. "I got there in time" - meaning "in time for some event which is assumed to be know."
E.G."I got there in time for the parade"
"I delivered the report in time for him to read it before the meeting"
"I got to town in time (for)/(to catch) the last train"
"I got there in time" - meaning "in time for some event which is assumed to be known".
but
"I got there on time" - meaning "before the deadline" - which may be known to the hearer, but does not need to be, because the phrase itself implies a deadline as opposed to some other event.
