Legalise the use of private e scooters in the UK

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

Recently the prime minister suggested that the use of e scooters would help the environment and help safe social distance regarding the covid 19 pandemic.
So a whole load of people went out to purchase e scooters to support this great nation.

Because it’s miss leading of mr Johnson to say on national tv one thing and then change his mind the next.

some on finance some purchased costing 500 - 2000 pound scooters.

But you can only use a rental scooter provided by the local rental firms

I don’t feel it’s fair

And I’m sure the British public don’t think it’s fair either.
