Ms Jean Andrews:

Yes. While that legislation is pending, in that gap, people are rushing out in their droves to buy private e-scooters. There is policy uncertainty. There are no rules and regulations as to how people should ride e-scooters safely. There are a lot of people riding them on pavements and many examples of poor rider behaviour. The sooner we have legislation to provide that certainty so people are aware of how they should be riding the scooters, the better, for shared schemes also.
