E-scooters: Legal Use & Trials in UK
Update: 2025-12-23
Description
E-scooters are illegal on UK public roads, pavements, parks, or cycle lanes due to the Road Traffic Act of 1998. Theyre considered motor vehicles, requiring a license, insurance, and adherence to road rules. No insurance exists for private ones, making public use a criminal offense. Penalties include seizures, court cases, and license points. Trials in select areas allow regulated rental schemes, but misuse should be reported for safety.
