How is the Cabinet Secretary working with the UK Government's Secretary of State for Transport in the interests of pedestrian safety with regards to the private use of e-scooters?
Ateb
Atebwyd gan Cabinet Secretary for Transport and North Wales
Pedestrian safety is important to me and this will be my starting point in future discussions with the UK Government about the regulation of private e-scooter use in the UK.
E-scooters are currently illegal to use on the road or pavement unless part of a UK Government regulated trial, and even then, current regulations mean that they can only be used by people who have at least a provisional driving licence.
Anyone found using a private e-scooter by the police risks a fixed penalty notice and the seizure of their scooter.
