Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport
Pre-legislative Scrutiny of Road Traffic (Miscellaneous Provisions) Bill 2019
Mr. Michael Rowland:
Part of our submission to the Minister actually called out these particular types of vehicles and said they should be excluded from the definitions of personal powered transport or e-scooters. Senator Craughwell is quite right. Several of these are less stable on our roads, including hoverboards. I suspect these are what the Senator has seen. We recommend that they would not be included in the definition of e-scooters as proposed by the Department.
