e-Scooter safety
Please see the attached safety message regarding E-Scooters from Essex Police and The Safer Road Essex Partnership.
e-scooters are becoming more of an issue and a danger for our young people; with instances of children in primary school even owning e-scooters.
Attached is a flyer we have produced about e-scooters, to alert parents and carers on the facts and legalities around e-scooters, and highlight the dangers to your community.
The key points:
- Privately owned e-scooters are illegal to ride on the highway. Ones you can buy from shops like Halfords can only be used on privately owned land, with the landowner’s permission.
- Trial hire scooters can only be ridden by people 18 years plus, with a driver’s licence. These scooters can only be used by the person who created the Tier account.
- The storage of e-scooters at home or on school grounds can cause a fire risk with lithium battery fires.
- Riding an e-scooter puts the rider at much higher risk on the roads, any collision may be more serious.
Safer Essex Road priority is making Essex a safer place to live. We can only achieve Vision Zero, zero road deaths and serious injuries by 2040, together.
