Closed petition Make it a criminal offence to use an e-scooter in a public park

Closed on

I believe that for safety reasons using an e-scooter in public parks, where helpless and defenceless children and elderly people have no way of moving out of their way, should not be allowed.

My 5 year old little girl was hit by an electric scooter in St. James Park in London and required 3 ambulances, 2 polices cars, and hospital treatment.

My daughter has had to fight for her life from early on in my pregnancy, she has a rare and complex cardiac condition and for something like this to happen to her tiny little frame just breaks my heart to think her outcome could have been a lot worse!
