FAQs

Are electric scooters legal in the UK?

You can buy a privately owned e-scooter, but you can only ride it on private land with the owner's permission. It is illegal to ride one on public roads, pavements or cycle lanes. Only rental scooters in official trial areas are allowed on public roads.

Where can I ride a private electric scooter?

On private land with the landowner's permission, such as your own garden, a private estate or a campsite that allows them. Check the site's rules, and check GOV.UK for any changes to UK law.

What happens if I ride an e-scooter on the road?

You can be fined, get penalty points on a driving licence, and have the scooter seized. A private e-scooter is treated as a motor vehicle on public roads, and it cannot usually be insured for that use.

How far can an electric scooter go on one charge?

Range depends on battery size, rider weight, speed and terrain. A listed range is a maximum in ideal conditions, so expect less in daily use.
