When Melbourne resident Andy Cox decided to sell his car, he was planning to use an e-scooter to get around. But he didn't know riding it on Victorian roads was illegal.
E-scooter trials kicked off in February in the City of Melbourne, the City of Yarra, the City of Port Phillip, and in Ballarat. But outside the trials, e-scooters mostly remain illegal to ride on roads and can only be used on private property.
