🛴 Are e-scooters legal in Scotland?

It's one of the questions we're asked most often and the answer surprises many people.

Privately owned e-scooters remain illegal to use on public roads, pavements and cycle paths, yet they're becoming an increasingly common sight across Scotland.

With accident rates rising and compensation claims now exceeding £110 million, it's clear the law needs to catch up with modern transport.

RTA LAW Solicitor, Thomas Mitchell has shared his thoughts in a new opinion piece for The Scotsman.
