What the petition asks
Change the law that states it is illegal to use electric scooters on public land. They should be allowed to be used the same way as bicycles.
It is an eco-friendly way to get around and could likely reduce traffic congestion aswell as pollution emitted from motorised vehicles (Cars, trucks, motorbikes etc.)
