Man on crusade against misuse of mobility scooters writes to LTA and SMRT, shares their responses


He is a man on a crusade against the misuse of personal mobility aids (PMAs) – and devices that look like them.

Stomper Anthony first contacted Stomp in July 2025 about mobility scooters indiscrimately parked at the void deck of a Yew Tee block.

In August, he shared a photo of a woman riding a PMA with a toddler standing in it along a footpath at Choa Chu Kang Drive opposite Yew Tee MRT station.

He also shared a photo of two people seated in a mobility scooter riding along Choa Chu Kang North 6 towards Yew Tee Point.

It is illegal to have two or more riders on a single PMA, but devices with multiple seats are not classified as PMAs by the Land Transport Authority (LTA), even though they look like PMAs.

In the same month, Anthony also highlighted to Stomp the sale of what he believed were unauthorised mobility devices on Carousell.

In November, he shared photos of a mobility scooter with two seats and asked how such an “oversized” device made it onto the train.

On Dec 9, the commuter wrote to SMRT about an “oversized two-seater” on the train at Bukit Batok MRT station a day earlier.
