E-scooters could be here to stay as the Department for Transport is looking into legalising them in the UK.
Currently, the only way you can legally ride an electric scooter in the UK is by hiring one available through a Government trial. They include the Neuron E-scooters in Newcastle and Sunderland.
In April, the Government announced plans to bring in legislation to legalise private e-scooters, but until then, riding one you own is illegal and you won't have any insurance if you do.
