Petition

Age restrict the use of electronic bikes & scooters, and where they can be used.

Rejected 14 signatures

What the petition asks

Introduce a minimum age for using e-bike and e-scooters, and make it illegal for them to be used in public places (such as parks/playing fields) and pavements.
Introduce the requirement of a provisional license and insurance in order to purchase and use an e-bike and e-scooter.

Why it was rejected

It was not clear what the petition asked the UK Government or Parliament to do.

There are already age restrictions on who can use e-bikes and e-scooters.

If you would like changes to the current age restrictions, you could start a new petition about that.
