Following the government's move to ban micromobility vehicles on public roads, social media was abuzz with questions if it included the infamous basikal lajak (modified bicycles) as well.

A check by Malaysiakini found that those who use bicycles without proper brakes were liable to a fine.

Based on other regulations, the use of modified bicycles on public roads could be deemed an offence.

For example, the Road Traffic Rules 1959 (Kaedah-kaedah Lalulintas Jalan 1959) stated the below examples as violations.

Rule 11: Children not placing their feet on the pedals when cycling. (Basikal lajak is often characterised by the 'superman' position to be more aerodynamic when going downhill)
