Legalise all E-Scooter usage where bicycles can be used

Closed 255 signatures

What the petition asks

I would like the Government to make it legal to use any e-scooter where bicycles can be used, including on roads and in bike lanes. Currently e-scooters can only be used where they are part of a pilot rental programme, which is too restrictive.
As we look to make the UK more greener, with electric cars, and more cycling. We believe E-Scooters are the next step for automotive transport. It's electric so no carbon emissions from use, and they are fairly cheap to buy. With the correct legislation they can be legalised safely.
