Who ask them don't study harder? Also, they can still ride bicycles. Exercise. I can't stand those fat fuckers (m&ds and chinks) riding PMDs.

Many are just too lazy to exercise their limbs! They should be banned not just from footpaths but everywhere.

They should be banned from life.

Can we next ban grab bikes and young children?

 

[laksaboy]

We should also ban e-wheelchairs. They are a menace on pavements.

 

[glockman]

I have a few question need clarification

1. How is the government going to enforce this new law?

2. Can public footpath users help to bring offenders to justice? For example see e-scooter coming stop e-scooter (with all means) and call 999.

This govt is very capable of enforcing laws, they will think of something that's for sure. I have seen enforcement officers stationed along long stretches of pathways during that time when they banned heavy PMDs. Some were in uniform and some were in civilian clothes.

If I were the MP, I would tell them, we all love to fuck but we need to fuck responsibly and not anyhow shoot and not think of the consequences. Go get a bicycle, carry on with your food delivery job and get fit at the same time. Remember the PAP is "With you, for you, for Singapore."

FUCK PAP
Why ban PMDs???
Erection Cumming?!?

I doubt erections can be sustained in 2019, count it on hindsight.

 

[ToaPehGong]

Ban those irritating Tour de France wannabe cyclists too

 

[whoami]

They can't ride on footpaths, void decks, and roads. Only on 440km of cycling paths. Shiok! @whoami still want to buy PMD?

No, havent buy yet. Now only on cycling path. Pathetic.

Buy e-wheelchair is the best. Take bus or MRT everyone treats you like royalty. I have also seen wheelchair riders delivering food.

If only there were a mobile barber's chair with an adjustable seat height, and it can take you from Jurong to Bedok in one hour, on a single charge.

Over 1 in 3 GrabFood riders affected by PMD ban on footpaths – Mothership.SG

With the recent announcement that e-scooters will be banned from all footpaths starting Nov. 5, 2019, delivery riders who depend on the device are finding it a blow to their livelihood.

1 in 3 GrabFood delivery-partners depend on e-scooters

In response to Mothership’s queries, a Grab spokesperson said that Grab respects the decision by the Government to ban e-scooters on all footpaths due to safety.

The spokesperson also revealed that over one in three GrabFood delivery-partners rely on e-scooters to fulfil orders and earn an income.

“With the new direction, affected partners will have to consider other modes of transport, which may not be readily available to them,” said the spokesperson.

The spokesperson also said that Grab plans to engage the Government on possible a possible arrangement for delivery-partners who ride responsibly:

“Grab plans to engage the Government in further dialogue on the possibility of allowing delivery-partners who have displayed responsible riding behaviours the option to continue using e-Scooters under certain conditions for delivery.”

They added that GrabFood is committed to helping all affected partners and will be reaching out to them by the end of the week.
Grab also asked for understanding on the part of consumers:

“During this period, we would like to seek consumers’ understanding that they may have to wait longer for their orders or may experience an increase in cancellations by delivery-partners who may not be able to cover the delivery distance on foot.”

Deliveroo promises not to work with riders who flout the law
Meanwhile, Deliveroo has made a public stand against riders who flout the rules.
In response to CNA’s queries, Deliveroo said:

“We sent out communications to all riders today to inform them of the new regulation. Should any rider be found using an e-scooter on footpaths after Nov 5, we will stop working with them.”

According to CNA, Deliveroo had stopped taking in PMD delivery riders since May 2019.

Deliveroo also told CNA that it expects the ban to have minimal impact on its operations.

This echoes what Senior Minister of State Lam Pin Min said in Parliament, that less than 30 per cent of Deliveroo and FoodPanda riders use e-scooters.
