Only Yishun?Old folks in Yishun got death wish?
Reckless Personal Mobility Aid (PMA) riding, speeding, and illegal modifications are not exclusive to Yishun. Similar safety incidents, pedestrian conflicts, and enforcement crackdowns have been documented across various housing estates and towns in Singapore, including:
- Bedok: High-density footpaths and town center walkways have seen collisions and enforcement stops, such as accidents involving speeding mobility scooters (including incidents resulting in hospital conveyances like the one along Bedok paths).
- Jurong West & Jurong East: HDB heartlands with heavy foot traffic around wet markets and transport hubs, where collisions between fast-moving PMAs and pedestrians (including fatal or severe accidents) have raised serious safety concerns.
- Tampines: Bustling cycling and walking corridors where conflicts arise between pedestrians, cyclists, and oversized or fast-moving mobility devices.
- Ang Mo Kio & Woodlands: Older, mature estates with extensive footpaths connecting MRT stations, hawker centers, and void decks, frequently flagged by residents for erratic PMA speeds and sidewalk congestion.
