Make a change on Personal light electric vehicles use on public cycle lanes.
In France & other countries you can ride an electric scooter in cycle lanes & on the paths providing you keep to a set speed limit.The UK has yet to embrace the laws that other countries are adopting, with the shift to become more environmentally aware why can't we use alternative methods for travel
In France you can ride an electric scooter in cycle lanes and on the pavement, providing you keep to a set speed limit. In Germany electric scooter use on pavements is legal up to 6 kph. Austria and Switzerland it is fine to ride your scooter in cycle lanes and on roads up to 25 kph. In California PLEVs are recognised as a legal way to get around as long as the rider is over 16 and wears a helmet (which we think is really rather sensible).
