⚠️Do not modify your Active Mobility Devices (AMDs) as they pose safety risks to yourself and others.
In April 2024, two fire incidents were linked to non-compliant Power-Assisted Bicycles (PABs) fitted with higher-capacity batteries.🔋 Investigations revealed that owners of both PABs had either purchased the PAB or an additional PAB battery from Drive Bikes Singapore.
Mr Prince Bryan Tan, Sales & Marketing Manager of Drive Bikes Singapore, will be charged in court tomorrow for:
1️⃣ Selling a non-compliant PAB under the Active Mobility Act 2017, and
2️⃣ Causing a PAB to be modified, rendering it non-compliant for use under the Traffic Act 1961.
We take these offences seriously. Remember to only purchase and use devices and parts (including batteries) from original manufacturers or official retailers. Non-compliant users may be fined up to $10,000, or face imprisonment up to 6 months, or both. 🚫

#GuardiansOfTheRoads continue to carry out enforcement operations at various locations across Singapore. Recently, 24 vehicles were caught with non-compliant modifications such as tinted films, decorative lamps, non-standard number plates and modified exhausts. Such modifications can distract other road users, compromise safety and violate noise and emission standards.
We remain committed to enforcing against these violations as part of our broader efforts to make roads safer for everyone.
For more information on vehicle modifications: https://go.gov.sg/n1qls9

#PSA We’ve just launched a Request for Proposal (RFP) to seek industry’s proposals on piloting autonomous public bus services.
This RFP will help us assess the technical feasibility and operational requirements for deploying autonomous buses at both individual service and fleet levels! 🚌
The pilot deployment will comprise 6️⃣ autonomous buses on service 400 at Marina Bay/Shenton Way, followed by service 191 at one-north. We are starting with these routes as they are shorter and simpler.
#SafetyFirst During the initial phase, the buses will operate with bus captains onboard as safety operators. ⛑ Thereafter, a remote safety operator can take over the supervisory role.
The RFP is expected to close in Q2 2025 and awarded by end 2025.
From mid-2026, the autonomous buses will operate alongside our existing manned bus services for an initial period of 3 years.
