Blueray Hypersonic December 13, 2017 Share December 13, 2017 More PMD users caught violating road traffic laws SINGAPORE — More people have been caught riding personal mobility devices (PMDs), mainly e-scooters, on the roads so far this year compared with the whole of last year, the Land Transport Authority (LTA) said on Tuesday (Dec 12). Between January and November, an average of 40 PMD users a month were caught riding on the roads and had their devices impounded. This is an increase from the monthly average of 34 users caught last year, the LTA said in response to queries from TODAY. The bulk of the impounded PMDs were e-scooters, with a small number of hoverboards or e-skateboards. Users were mostly caught for riding on minor roads, but a small minority used their PMDs on major roads and expressways. "The increase reflects a rising usage of PMDs and a step-up in enforcement efforts," an LTA spokesperson said. In the past 11 months, more than 430 PMD users were caught. From January to the start of July, the authority had seized 218 PMDs that were used on the roads. The issue of unsafe use of PMDs has made headlines recently. On Nov 30, a 52-year-old e-scooter rider died after an accident with a double-decker bus. That same day, another 16-year-old e-scooter rider was taken to the hospital after being hit by a car. Last month, a video showing a man riding his e-scooter illegally on the Pan-Island Expressway went viral on social media. He was eventually caught by the LTA and the Traffic Police. http://www.todayonline.com/singapore/more-pmd-users-caught-violating-road-traffic-laws 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamesc Hypersonic December 13, 2017 Share December 13, 2017 The driver most probably get fine with the amount she is affordable and get ban from driving for a period which she is ok with. Seriously this type of light sentences for causing death should be changed to at least a year jail term and would be even better with caning. Take her COE away. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ct3833 Supersonic December 13, 2017 Share December 13, 2017 (edited) kanna sai, illegal behaviour and still put on all the safety gears. Pui !!!So many of them, I dont believe none of them knew that what they were doing was illegal, since they chose to test their luck, if get caught, the most severe punishment should be given to them.Now my dad is inside resuscitation & critical care room and I now still waiting outside lor. Should be okay as he still can walk and talk. Just that blood level low.Wishing your dad a speedy recovery.

Chucky2007 Turbocharged December 13, 2017 Share December 13, 2017 circle lane you knowâ¦what circle lane? is NEWTON CIRCLE.. Civic driver â¦you signal does not mean is safe for you to change lane at the last min to turn right . What if red car goes straight? From the driver turning into CTE exit Moulmein and turning into Balestier...I think red car initially wants to go straight (his lane can Turn Right or go straight)... and the hero white civic suddenly Turn Right from his “circle lane 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
