Educate! Not ban PMDs from footpaths when infrastructures isn't ready.

The Issue

Without the relevant infrastructures to facilitate the changes and straight outright ban which is equivalent to just throwing the "last-mile" initiative right out of the window.

It is not just food delivery personnel that's 30% affected. But this outright ban is uncalled for rendering almost 20,000 UL compliant escooters into literal scrap metal, that is having a restricted usage. 

I want to achieve through this petition:

-infrastructure needs to be at least 50%ready before a blanket ban is imposed

-educate the users NOT BAN.

Who to be educated?(through online quiz) 

-those who have encountered accidents(to learn risk assessment and defensive riding)

-new registered users(mandatory)

Suggested process flow:

(for new users) 

Each PMD owner are to take the online quiz that can/maybe should be tagged to their singpass. After they have passed their registration links should be enabled.

(existing users) 

To just pass their PMD safety/education quiz.

 

I hope everyone stay safe, Ride safe, ride responsibly.
