Transport Ministry reviewing if laws are needed to stop such sales: Baey Yam Keng
After several thousand offences involving non-compliant mobility devices on paths were detected here, the Ministry of Transport (MOT) is reviewing if laws are needed to stop the sale of such devices online.
Senior Parliamentary Secretary for Transport Baey Yam Keng said this in Parliament on March 5.
He was replying to questions by Mr Yip Hon Weng (Yio Chu Kang) on the ministry's plans to carry out enforcement action against retailers and distributors of non-original batteries for active mobility devices (AMDs).
Mr Baey said the Land Transport Authority (LTA) detected around 5,100 offences involving non-compliant devices on paths and roads from January 2020 to December 2023.
During that period, LTA found about 100 violations from operations conducted against retailers who sell such devices.
