Electric scooters or e-scooters are seeing a huge rise in popularity across Dublin, but what laws should scooter owners be aware of?
In short, there is no specific law in place at the moment covering e-scooters with regulations not expected to be introduced until 2023 under the Government's action plan for the National Sustainable Mobility Policy.
Meanwhile, the Government published the Road Traffic and Roads Bill 2021 last October, which would regulate the use of e-scooters on Irish roads to combat climate change.
