执法人员飞踢电动滑板车骑士 陆交局调查、不姑息偏离守则行为

对于网络上疯传,有执法人员飞踢电动滑板车骑士的争议视频,陆路交通管理局在今晚(11日)于脸书公开回应,指当局目前已介入调查,且不会姑息任何偏离执法守则的行为。 当局指出,昨日傍晚约6时40分,一组陆交局执法人员和策安(Certis Cisco)辅警组成的队伍,正在勿洛蓄水池路一带进行执法任务。 有关辅警发现一名电动滑板车骑士,在勿洛北三道行驶,于是发信号指示停车,孰料骑士竟避开辅警。最终在下个路口北另一辅警截停(即网传视频中,被飞踢)。 当局连同警方、策安公司已介入调查。当局解释,策安乃是在合约下协助陆交局进行执法活动。 与此同时,陆交局指有关骑士在公路上使用未注册、重达30.54公斤不符规格的电动滑板车,目前已被当局没收及调查。 有关视频相信是被其中一辆轿车的行车记录器拍到,显示一辆电动滑板车正在靠左边车道行驶,似乎是想要躲避执法人员。 在视频最后第8秒,执法人员使出全身力气,冲向对面马路,想要先挡在电动滑板车面前,让它停驶却无果,最后使出“无影脚”飞踢电动滑板车,而电动滑板车则翻向路边倒下。 在视频最后第8秒,执法人员使出全身力气,冲向对面马路,想要先挡在电动滑板车面前,让它停驶却无果,最后使出“无影脚”飞踢电动滑板车,而电动滑板车则翻向路边倒下。 视频一出,立刻引起网民疯传,不同的声音也随之而来。部分网民认为执法人员正在执行公务,飞踢是为了阻止电动滑板车的行驶;但有者也担忧执法过度,没必要用过度的暴力对付违规者。
