PMD travelling at ‘high speeds’ in KPE tunnel seized: LTA

PMDs are not allowed on all roads, and therefore cannot travel on expressways and in tunnels, according to the LTA’s OneMotoring website.

A flash of light is seen in the video, as the PMD and its riders negotiate a bend, suggesting that a speed camera has been activated, before they are seen approaching the south-bound Airport Road exit.

There are several speed cameras in the KPE tunnel, with the speed limits on that expressway generally at 80kmh, or down to 70kmh at some parts.

Motorised PMDs are subjected to a maximum device speed limit of 25kmh.

Also, a licence plate is not visible on the device in the video. Under LTA regulations, all registered PMDs must display an LTA-issued registration mark at the front or sides of the device.

The YouTube video has since garnered more than 24,000 views, and over 240 comments.

In separate enforcement operations against errant cyclists and device users, the LTA impounded 100 non-compliant devices and detected 310 offences.

Anyone who sees errant users of active mobility devices can report them on go.gov.sg/report-am
