KUALA Lumpur City Hall (DBKL) will be drawing up a comprehensive guideline to regulate the use of micromobility vehicles in the city following the ban on such machines on public roads.

DBKL now has the unenviable task of drawing up guidelines and by-laws on the use of vehicles in that category such as electric scooters (escooters) at parks, footpaths, pavements and any public areas under its jurisdiction.
