Legalise the use of Electric scooters that do not exceed 15mph on cycle paths.
Legalise the use of electric scooters owned by people that do not exceed 15mph which is the same as many electric bikes. The use of electric scooters around the UK or at least in major cities would ease congestion, cut down on emissions, cut down the spread of coronavirus and make many commutes easy
E Scooters, although I do realise there are some that exceed 15 mph, I belive that this speed should be deemed safe and scooters over this speed should be placed under review.
