Guy rides PMD at about 77km/h along Keppel Road & does 'Superman' pose

A person riding a personal mobility device in Singapore was seen going faster than cars on the road and even pulled off a "Superman" pose while at it.

The rider's antics were caught on camera.

In response to Mothership's queries, @rainforeyuxen, the person who took the video and posted it on Instagram, said the clip of the incident was filmed on May 23 at about 1:23am along Keppel Road.

Two or three other riders were apparently also seen performing the same stunt while riding at a fast speed, the eyewitness said.

The rider seen on video apparently did the pose a few times, the eyewitness added.

@mothershipsg wonder if superman met police man after Under Land Transport Authority (LTA) regulations, motorised Personal Mobility Devices (PMDs) are not permitted on the road. Instagram user @rainforeyuxen, who witnessed the incident, told Mothership that it happened at Keppel Road on May 23 at about 1:23am. The user added that the rider had been with "2 or 3 other friends doing the same thing". #mothershipnews ♬ original sound - Mothership

Travelled about 70km/h to 80km/h

The distance the PMD rider travelled in the video appeared to be about 170m, based on the landmarks seen in the video.

The distance was covered in about 8 seconds.

This works out to about 76.5km/h.

According to @rainforeyuxen, the video was not sped up.
