Allow electric e-scooters to be able to ride on pavements and roads
I don't understand why Parliament have made this rule, I think e-scooters, bikes and other e modes of transport are a good thing.
Introduce compulsory third party insurance for electric mobility scooters
There is currently no legal requirement for drivers of electric mobility scooters to obtain third party insurance cover; as such any person sustaining injuries through negligence of the driver can have a low chance of claiming compensation. We would like to see compulsory insurance introduced.
Cycling safety improvements recommended for London
