E-scooter ban on footpaths to extend to all motorised PMDs under amendments to Active Mobility Act

The Bill also puts into place an inspection regime for e-scooters, first announced last year, that will require such devices to go for mandatory inspections every two years, beginning on Apr 1 this year.

Under the amendments, the maximum penalties for key offences by both users and retailers will be increased as part of efforts to deter"errant and irresponsible behaviour", MOT added. It added that the Bill also makes related amendments to the Road Traffic Act to enhance penalties for PMD-related offences.

So pro PMD and PMD lovers , now song bo ?
