Legalise electric scooters to promote social distancing while travelling to work

Rejected 14 signatures

What the petition asks

We want there to be a legalisation of the use of electric scooters on the roads and bike paths of london.
Public transport will be a social distancing nightmare for the poeple of london once lockdown has been lifted. We need to start looking at other means of transport which people can use to keep themselves socially distanced from one another whilst still having a reliable and time efficient means of travel to work.
