OKU - The South Sumatra Ogan Komering Ulu (OKU) Police Traffic Unit prohibits the use of electric bicycles on the highway because it has the potential to endanger other motorists.
Head of the OKU Police Traffic Unit, AKP Dwi Karti Astuti, said that the use of electric bicycles has been regulated in Permenhub Number 45/2020 concerning Specific Vehicles by Using Electric Motor Mobilization.
Electric bicycles can only be used on special lanes with a maximum speed of 25 km/hour and are not given to children under the age of 17.
The Minister of Transportation stated that electric motorcycles already have Type Test Certification (SUT) and Vehicle Type Test Certification and are officially registered in the One-Stop Singles Administration System, have a STNK, as well as are registered and according to safety specifications.
"The electric bicycle is not included in the motorized vehicle group because there is no SUT and SRUT with a maximum speed of 25 kilometers per hour," he said in Baturaja, Antara, Wednesday, October 12.
During its implementation in recent years, the evaluation showed that people considered electric bicycles the same as electric motorcycles.
"On average, school children are used, do not wear helmets, and the speed is more than 25 kilometers per hour," he said.
Therefore, he asked parents to remind their children not to ride electric bicycles on the highway.
He also invited the public to jointly provide a correct understanding for the safety of electric bicycle users, especially for children to reduce the number of accidents on the highway.
"We convey both to children and adults not to use electric vehicles on the highway because they can be given a ticket in accordance with applicable regulations," he said.
