Rejected petition Forbid the usage of electric scooters on the sidewalks.

Forbid the usage of electric scooters on the sidewalks.

More details

These machines can easily travel with 20mph or more. It poses a tremendous amount of danger for the population. Life-threatening danger to all of us. Most of us had countless near misses in the past months during the pandemic. Some of us were unfortunate enough to suffer injuries and even died. I think it's best to take action before more people get hurt or more people will fear to have a stroll on the sidewalks.

We can't publish petitions when the request is something that's already happening or something that has been announced since you started your petition.

It's already against the law to use an e-scooter on pavements:
