SINGAPORE \u2013 A personal mobility device (PMD) that was seen ferrying two people in the KPE tunnel in July \u201cat high speeds\u201d has been seized by the authorities.<\/p>\n
The Land Transport Authority (LTA), in a Facebook post on Aug 13, said that enforcement officers seized the device within three days of the incident on July 13.<\/p>\n
Investigations are ongoing, it added.<\/p>\n
Dashcam footage posted on YouTube channel SG Road Vigilante SGRV showed two people riding the PMD and overtaking several vehicles in an expressway tunnel.<\/p>\n
PMDs are not allowed on all roads<\/span><\/a>, and therefore cannot travel on expressways and in tunnels, according to the LTA\u2019s OneMotoring website.<\/p>\n 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.<\/p>\n 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.<\/p>\n Motorised PMDs are subjected to a maximum device speed limit of 25kmh.<\/p>\n 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.<\/p>\n The YouTube video has since garnered more than 24,000 views, and over 240 comments.<\/p>\n In separate enforcement operations against errant cyclists and device users, the LTA impounded 100 non-compliant devices and detected 310 offences.<\/p>\n Anyone who sees errant users of active mobility devices can report them on\u00a0go.gov.sg\/report-am<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n SINGAPORE \u2013 A personal mobility device (PMD) that was seen ferrying two people in the KPE tunnel in July \u201cat high speeds\u201d has been seized…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":76483,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[2611],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-76482","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-buzz-headlines","wpcat-2611-id"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/76482","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=76482"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/76482\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/76483"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=76482"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=76482"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=76482"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
