Two-wheeled, electric scooters also a menace in KL


By GERARD

KUALA LUMPUR: Despite the Transport Ministry’s ban on micromobility vehicles on public roads since last year, motorists in the city centre say users are still driving these on the roads here. They complain that the vehicles, especially escooters, were being driven on roads in and around the Kuala Lumpur city centre, inadvertently causing a nuisance to other road users.

Taxi driver Badrul Abrul Rahman said the escooters were mostly seen on main roads during peak hours and weekends.
