PWDs, individuals with health problems won’t be summoned for using personal mobility aids to cross roads, says transport minister

PUTRAJAYA, April 28 — The authorities will not issue summonses to persons with disabilities and individuals with health problems who use Personal Mobility Aids at pedestrian crossings on public roads.

An announcement by Wee on Tuesday regarding the immediate ban on the use of moped type micro-mobility vehicles, Personal Mobility Devices and PMA on the road had caused concern among the PwDs. To enable his ministry to understand the needs of the PwD and avoid any misunderstanding in the future, Wee said a PwD representative would be appointed to the MIROS board of directors soon and that he had asked OKU Sentral president Senator Datuk Ras Adiba Radzi to propose the name of a candidate to him after Hari Raya Aidilfitri at the latest.

“Thank you Datuk Seri for clearly explaining it to us. Previously, we were confused about the ban. Now that we understand, we are relieved and we also understand that PwDs will not be summoned if they cross the road in a wheelchair,” she said.
