Because e-scooters don’t always have visible rear red lights, number plates or signalling ability, they can’t be used legally on roads.
Private e-scooters can only be used on private land and not on public roads, cycle lanes or pavements.
The solely e-scooters that can be utilized on public roads are these which might be rented as a part of government-backed trials.
