We’re waiting for a new Petitions Committee
Petitions had to stop because of the recent general election. Once a new Petitions Committee is set up by the House of Commons, petitions will start again.

Closed petition Make provisions under law to allow stand up e-scooters to be treat as cycles.
Treat light e scooters as pedal assist e cycles and make possible for more powerful stand up e scooters to be registered as motor vehicles.
More details
The only difference with light scooters and e bikes that conform to law is the lack of fixed pedals, with proper provision under law regulation will mean all of them can be limited to 15.5 assist speed and pedal assist, so not twist and go. The more powerful can be used safely on the road with the same provisions as mopeds, limited by posted speed limits etc and subject to cbt or licence, identifying plates and insurance.
This petition is closed All petitions run for 6 months
