For example, currently,\u00a0most people are saying that if motorists hit\u00a0PMD users due to PMD users&#8217; negligence, it is definitely difficult\u00a0to claim against them as they do not have insurance and have no proper paperwork. With insurance (I am sure other insurance companies will follow NTUC Income), there is a proper channel to claim against PMD users. Vice versa, with insurance, PMD users involved in accidents due to motorists&#8217; negligence\u00a0can request the Insurance company to represent them to claim whatever cost that are involved.<\/p>\n<p>This insurance plan,\u00a0Personal Mobility Guard (PMG), from NTUC Income will be available from 25th April 2016. You can check out the link below from 25th April.<\/p>\n<h1><a href=\"http:\/\/www.income.com.sg\/PMG\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/www.income.com.sg\/PMG<\/a><\/h1>\n<p>Personally, I believe NTUC Income has guidelines on specifications of the PEVs\/PMDs\/e-Bicylce\/bicycle. For those\u00a0who had modified their PMDs or e-bikes, you might not be entitled to the insurance plan. I have yet to see the content of this insurance plan. So the above are my opinion only.<\/p>\n<h1><a href=\"http:\/\/www.straitstimes.com\/singapore\/transport\/ntuc-income-launches-first-of-its-kind-insurance-plan-for-bicycle-mobility\" target=\"_blank\">Click Here to Read More Information from Straits Times<\/a><\/h1>\n<p>As you may already know, since\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/techielobang.com\/blog\/2016\/04\/12\/result-amap-recommendations-pev-pmd-e-bike\/\" target=\"_blank\">our\u00a0Transport Ministry announced that they will adopt to the recommendations by AMAP<\/a> (<span style=\"color: #555555;\">Active Mobility Advisory Panel), expect to see a lot more activities\/information on PEVs\/PMDs\/e-Bike from now on.
