New PMA rules kicking in - “I don’t agree. I want to fetch my wife, and I want to fetch my granddaughter. All along there has been no problem,”

The woman, 67, said she and her 72-year-old husband had grown used to using the device to ferry their granddaughter to and from school. Her husband also uses it to drop her off at work.

While her husband is above 70 and exempt from the certificate requirement, she will need one but has no plans to apply.

 

“I will see how first, because if we can’t even ride on a PMA with two people, then it would be a waste of our PMA anyway,” she said. Asked if she would consider buying a compliant device, she said money was tight.

 

Her husband said the 6kmh limit and single-rider rule were too strict. “I don’t agree. I want to fetch my wife, and I want to fetch my granddaughter. All along there has been no problem,” he said.

Those caught riding a mobility scooter without a valid certificate of medical need face fines of up to S$2,000, up to six months' jail, or both. Those caught on oversized devices face fines of up to S$10,000, up to six months' imprisonment, or both.
