Acherli, the reckless guys are at it now. Fella rode from HDB void deck to car park access road to pavement by main road just now as I rtb. Got beedeo.

Just the one guy. Are all estates enforcement out in force or only poser photo op to pian lan pian lan?

Too bad we this group taught by the best of malaysia, you siginna got no game.

The caveat should be legit enforcement officers (including SPF and scdf) would have uninterrupted access to residential/HDB unit linked to registered PMD.

Another tool for the SPF.

Only the 正大光明 can afford responsible PMD use.

I just got a video with commentary saying got a fella rammed his Pmd into a prime mover head! !

Is this some kind of self immolation protest?

The footpath is never safe with bicycles around. The same group of PMD riders will just continue on the bicycles.

Do you all prefer to be banged by PMD or bicycles?

At least bicycles are powered by the rider so limited in power 

most are not fit because the fit ones want to go on the road 

those not fit will have problem will go at escooter speed for extended period 

I suspect alot escooter people cannot pass won’t be able to ride fast for Long one

many like to be young towkays … "own business" = sub contractors.

Quite true. Took a ride once in this Grab and asked the young guy if he was a part time driver (coz he was wearing shorts & slippers thot he casual drive a few hours type), he said he's a 'business owner'. Ask him what business he owns and said that driving Grab is his full time business.....Oh, ok lor.

there is no restriction on PMDs riding on ……… the grass alongside the pathways !!

Perhaps should read the PARKS AND TREES ACT.
Grass is a plant.

This Beng should go upgrade his skills at SkillsFuture Singapore and take on a proper job. PMD delivery is not sustainable in the long run. No skills set and no career path.

I would say he should be thankful that he is making money using a PMD.... while it last.

He allowed (legalised) bicycles to share foot paths in Tampines!

I feel that PMDs have their place in modern living.  A better solution is to licence all PMDs, get owners to purchase insurance and limit their speed to about 10 km/h at most (double of human walking speed) via devices below for example.
