Allow electric scooters to be legal to ride on UK pathways
In the UK, the electric kick scooter is classified as a PLEV, or Personal Light Electric Vehicle, and that makes them illegal on British roads or pavements. This means that commuters who embrace this new method of urban travel remain at risk of possible arrest, and a fine of up to £75.
Benefits of using electric scooter is to protect the Environment. Since these vehicles run on batteries, there are no fumes or burning of fuels in the engine. Electric scooters are not only cost effective, but eco-friendly too. ... With an electric scooter, you'll improve air quality and decrease pollution.
