Sam Leong's band of brothers - PMD riders

[Leongsam]

Looks like an extremely efficient and non polluting means of transport more people should use these things instead of cars.

Motorists need to be careful around vulnerable road users.

A 71-year-old driver was left shaken after a near-miss with a group of cyclists along Jurong West Avenue 5 on March 14.

Stomper Anonymous said the cyclists swerved into her father’s lane at about 9pm.

She shared a video of several youths cycling on the road at night on bicycles and e-bikes, with one carrying a pillion rider. None of them appeared to be wearing helmets.

“My dad is an elderly driver,” said the Stomper. “They swerved into my dad’s lane whilst squeezing in and forced him to jam on his brakes.”

She said one of the cyclists got too close to her father’s vehicle, almost causing him to hit the cyclist.

“It affected his shoulders and gave him a shock because one of them got really close and my dad almost took a life because of them.”

According to the Stomper, her father is now safe at home but remains affected by what happened.

“It’s all fun and games now until one of them dies from getting hit by a moving vehicle, because this is at night and anything can happen,” she said.


“I’m just angry that because of them, my dad almost could have hit and killed someone. He could be in jail or lose his life forever because of these people.”

The Stomper said she hopes to raise awareness and that the youths’ parents will see the video. She added that she has reported the incident to the police.

In a similar incident earlier this month, four youths were seen riding e-bikes and bicycles without helmets in the middle of the road along Jurong West Avenue 1.

According to the Land Transport Authority (LTA), power-assisted bikes (PABs) and bicycles are allowed on the road but must adhere to traffic rules.

Riders are required to wear helmets while on the road.

Cyclists should also keep to the left of the lane, with a maximum of two cyclists riding abreast.

Stomp has contacted the police for more information.

84-year-old pedestrian dies after accident involving power-assisted bicycle in Bedok South​

The 84-year-old pedestrian was taken unconscious to hospital, where she subsequently died, the police said.

Published Feb 09, 2026

SINGAPORE – An 84-year-old woman died after an accident involving a power-assisted bicycle (PAB) in Bedok on Jan 30.

The police said they were alerted to the accident in Bedok South Avenue 3 towards Tanah Merah Kechil Road at 3.20pm.

The woman, a pedestrian, was taken unconscious to hospital where she died, the police said.

The police also added that a 43-year-old PAB rider is assisting with investigations, which are ongoing.

PABs are considered a type of active mobility device, a category that also includes personal mobility devices (PMDs) and personal mobility aids (PMAs).

From June 1, mobility scooter users will be required to hold a Certificate of Medical Need, a move that Minister of State for Transport Baey Yam Keng said is aimed at curbing the misuse of such devices by those without genuine mobility issues.

The speed limit of PMAs, which include mobility scooters, will be reduced from 10kmh to 6kmh from June 1, and new mobility scooters sold from that date will need to be registered.

A man was taken to hospital after allegedly being hit by a personal mobility device (PMD) in Yishun on the evening of April 16.

Stomper Ed said he was standing on the pavement near a bus stop along Yishun Ring Road at around 10.15pm when he was hit from behind.

“I lost my balance, but immediately turned and noticed it was a food delivery rider,” recounted Ed.

“Instead of getting off his PMD, he stared at me and questioned why I was standing in his path. I explained I was on the phone and thus didn’t wait at the bus stop as it might be disruptive to others waiting at such a late hour. Despite all this, it doesn’t mean he shouldn’t slow down or run his PMD into me.”

Ed said he started to feel pain in his lower limbs and noticed a cut on his left foot with blood oozing out. He also claimed the rider was unhappy about being held up from making his delivery and challenged the Stomper to call the police.

“After I called the police and ambulance, I sat by the pavement due to the pain and bleeding. And that was when he quickly got onto the PMD and sped off,” said Ed.

The Singapore Civil Defence Force told Stomp it was alerted to the accident at about 10.20pm and took one person to Khoo Teck Puat Hospital.

The Stomper said he was discharged at 2am and given four days’ medical leave.

In response to a Stomp query, the police confirmed that a report was lodged, adding that investigations are ongoing.

Ed is appealing for witnesses to come forward to assist with police investigations.

“Having been in the delivery scene previously, I know it’s tough for anyone, but fortunately, many peers I’ve met had been very professional and respectful. Thus, I always smile and give way as much as possible when I’m driving,” said the Stomper.

“There might still be black sheep around, which unfortunately I encountered for the first time that night. If such blatant irresponsible behaviour is not addressed, it might one day be someone’s young kids or elderly folk.”
