Singapore might be known as a boring place to Singaporeans but from time to time, mysteries that baffled the local internet pops up.
There are things like the creepy disappear-then-reappear inflatable dolls in Yishun…
…or the even creepier blindfolded doll.
Now, a new mystery has appeared on the road of Singapore.
The Super-Long E-Scooter
According to a video posted by popular Facebook Page Roads.sg, this super-long e-scooter was spotted travelling on the road near the Certis CISCO centre at Jalan Afifi.
The modified e-scooter was the length of a car. A mid-sized car, to be exact.
And netizens were wondering, why?
What’s the extra length for?
Is it for safety reasons?
A new ride-hailing service: #GrabScooter
It’s a tow service…for e-scooter
It’s not an e-scooter…it’s an e-trailer!
But our favourite comment is this:
It’s great to know that some people appreciate the classics.
And by classics, I mean this. P/S: You really need to watch this. Trust me.
Well, Mystery Remains Unsolved, Possibly Forever
Any chance of us discovering the real purpose of such a long e-scooter has possibly disappeared forever.
Because the LTA has impounded the e-scooter on 23 Oct 2018 during a routine enforcement patrol in the area.
They weighed the e-scooter and found that it has exceeded the maximum permissible weight of 20kg.
Some E-Scooter Rules You Need To Live By
In addition, they would like to remind the public that you are not allowed to ride the e-scooter on the roads.
As well as to keep within speed limits so that every user on the streets of Singapore can remain safe.
And if you’re looking to get for yourself an e-scooter, make sure your device adheres to the following requirements:
Your new device must not exceed 20kg in weight and 70 cm in width with the speed capped at 25km/h.
Of course, you’ll also need to keep in mind the new fire safety standards that will come into play in 2021.
The new standards will practically wipe out 90% of current e-scooters in Singapore so make sure you choose the right ones carefully.
Or you might just be buying an e-scooter with a two-year “COE”.
Should you be found breaking the rules, you might just be slapped with up to 6 months’ jail, up to $10,000 fine, or both.
So far, the e-trailer comment seems to be the most plausible, seeing how one netizen claimed to have seen this e-scooter (?) in action.
Wow. That must have been one strong e-scooter.
