E-Scooters: Understanding the Risks and the Law

🛴 We are aware that there are differing opinions regarding electric scooters. However, under current legislation, privately owned e-scooters cannot be ridden on roads, pavements, cycle paths, parks, or other public places. They may only be used on private land with the permission of the landowner.

🛴 We have recently seen an increase in reports of anti-social behaviour involving e-scooters and would like to remind residents of the law.

🛴 If you are considering purchasing an e-scooter as a gift, please ensure you have a suitable and lawful location for it to be used.

🛴 Failure to comply with the legislation could result in enforcement action, including seizure of the scooter, fines, and penalty points. 🚓

🛴 E-scooters can cause serious injury to riders and pedestrians, particularly when ridden at speed, on pavements, or in busy public areas. We have also received reports of anti-social and reckless riding, which can cause alarm and distress within our communities.

🛴 Please feel free to contact the Safer Neighbourhood Team team if you are having any issues or information with illegal scooters or bikes.

🛴 For more information on the laws relating to electric scooters and e-bikes, please visit the https://orlo.uk/f3Aa7 website.
