Singapore’s Land Transport Authority (LTA) will soon implement a new parking system using QR codes for dockless shared bikes.

From January 2019, users of shared bikes will have to park in designated zones and seal the deal by scanning a QR code. Failure to do so will incur a $5 fee, and repeat offenders will see their service suspended.

Do you think this is a good idea? Or is this an unwanted extra step in your commute? Take our poll and leave a comment below.
