Penang cyclist group says no to licence for bikes while consumer group says yes

Thursday, 17 Sep 2020 04:13 PM MYTPenang G Cyclists Group chairman Datuk Lim Seh Guan said making it compulsory for bicycles to have registration plates will not ensure the safety of riders but instead, will inconvenience cyclists. — AFP pic

He said the only valid reasons for bicycles to be licensed and issued registration plates was to track the owners in cases of bicycle theft. He said the situation is entirely different in Malaysia as most cyclists are recreational cyclists and they do not abandon their bicycles in public spaces. “Cyclists need to be regularised and their bicycles checked to ensure their bicycles are safe for cycling in public areas,” he said.
