• STEP 1: Consult online resources
E-scooter law changes oen make the
news, and most jurisdictions have an on-
line legal code database. These tools are
oen the most comprehensive, but are
occasionally misleading - different laws
apply to different classes of scooters,
such as sit-down scooters and rentals.
• STEP 2: Consult a legal expert
Online resources (including this one)
do not count as qualified legal council.
Talking to a lawyer or another expert may
clarify the status of e-scooter laws in your
area.
• STEP 3: Consult rider experience
The people with the most familiarity with
e-scooter laws are people in your area
who ride e-scooters! Reach out to a local
club or riding group and see what they
say.
Riding this scooter requires agility skills, and
therefore it must be used with care to avoid
any falls or collisions that could injure the
user or third parties. Do not use the electric
scooter if you do not know how to operate it
properly. Take time to familiarise yourself with
the scooter to avoid accidents during your
first outings. Also, make sure to signal your
presence, by using the bell when you get
closer to pedestrians or cyclists especially if
they can’t see or hear you.
Use with caution and at a safe distance from
any persons around you. Make sure you have
enough space to use the scooter safely. Avoid
all steps, and be mindful of the width of the
scooter when riding in narrow passages.
Always stay in control of your speed. Never
use the electric scooter in rainy, snowy and
icy conditions as this could be dangerous,
you could fall or injure yourself. In the event of
an accident, stop using the scooter and take
it to an authorised repair shop and have it
checked for any damage.
Be careful not to make sudden movements,
which could cause you to lose your balance or
fall. Do not hang any items on the handlebars.
This may affect the stability of the scooter.
Do not use any accessories or additional parts
that are not approved by the manufacturer.
Any modification of the scooter's core com-
ponents (such as unauthorized battery, motor
or controller will lead to the warranty being
void automatically). If the wheels jam, stop
using the scooter and contact the dealer.
WARNING! It takes longer to break in wet
weather conditions, if the road is wet or if the
wheels are wet.
WARNING! At night, in low visibility areas
or conditions, ride cautiously and adapt your
speed accordingly.
Use the scooter with caution when visibility
is too low to ensure safe driving, for example
in the dark or in fog, unless you equip the
scooter with suitable lights.
Do not touch the brake or the wheel immedi-
ately aer use as they could be very hot and
you could burn yourself.
WARNING! As with any mechanical
component, this device will degrade with
time and heavy use. Different components
have a different lifespan. If the lifespan of a
component is over, it can rupture suddenly,
potentially injuring the user. Cracks, scratches
and discolouration on heavily used compo-
