PMA user ignores red man, crashes into BMW at Ang Mo Kio junction and rides off
A personal mobility aid user (PMA) was caught on camera crossing the road while the red man was showing and crashing into a car -- before riding off.
Stomper Phil, who witnessed the incident, said it happened at the junction of Ang Mo Kio Avenue 5 and Avenue 8 on May 7 at about 4.16pm.
In dashcam footage shared with Stomp, the PMA user can be seen riding across the junction when the green light is in favour of oncoming traffic.
As the rider crosses the road, she crashes head-on into the side of a BMW.
Instead of stopping to check on the situation or exchange details, the PMA user simply reverses a little before continuing on her way.
The BMW also moves off from the junction.
"This is equivalent to a hit-and-run -- only in this case, the PMA user hit the car," said Phil.
"PMA riders continue to pose a hazard whether on roads or pavements.
"More regulations are needed."
