IAM RoadSmart reaction: E-scooter casualty data
Nicholas Lyes, Director of Policy and Standards at IAM RoadSmart, said:
“Shockingly, more than half of all casualties involving e-scooter users are outside of trial areas, which demonstrates the ‘wild west’ nature of misuse that is happening on our roads and pavements. The Government needs to urgently bring forward legislation on private e-scooters which must include minimum type approval device standards, speed limiters and proposals for riders to have a minimum level of competency prior to using these devices on the road.”
