Make E-Scooters legal in the Uk !

Rejected 10 signatures

What the petition asks

We are one of the last countries to catch up with the times due to a law written hundreds of years ago.
What is an E-Scooter ? Not a replica of a moped but a good old fashioned stand up scooter.

A motorised scooter is a battery powered stand-up scooter using a small electric motor. These scooters are designed with a deck in the centre on which the rider stands.

-E-scooters have mechanical breaks and should be allowed in cycle paths.
-E-scooters are better for the environment.
-Why are E-bikes allowed ? Because they have peddles! (that's just silly)
-E-scooters will cut emissions and traffic.
