Why was this petition rejected?
It’s not clear what the petition is asking the UK Government or Parliament to do.
Riding privately-owned electric scooters on public roads, paths or cycle lanes is already an offence. You can find out more about this here: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/powered-transporters/information-sheet-guidance-on-powered-transporters.
You could start a petition calling for a ban on the sale of electric scooters, if that is something you'd like to see happen.
We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
