E Scooter Usage from 1 November 2024

As we get closer to Christmas, more people may be in the market to purchase an e-scooter from one of the leading retailers.

 

However, it is important to remind parents and students of the rules surrounding e-scooter use.

 

· It is illegal to use an e-scooter in public areas.

· An e-scooter can only legally be used on private land with the owner’s permission.

· Parents may also be liable for prosecution as well.

 

As of Friday 1 November, officers who engage anyone using an e-scooter in a public place will seize the e-scooter, before sending it to be disposed after 14 days.
