E-Scooters Under 18 Banned Next Month | Belfast News

Starting next month, teens under 18 will be banned from riding e-scooters after a surge in accidents led to new safety rules — mandatory helmets and high-vis vests, plus future licensing and registration. Sales to minors and unsafe scooters will also be halted, as traumatic brain injuries from crashes have jumped 50% in a year. Gardaí will get stronger legal backing in pursuits, too — all part of a tightening grip on e-scooter safety. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
