Tim Jones: Living Streets Aotearoa says e-scooters are "too fast" for footpaths

Taxpayers have forked out 30 million dollars worth of ACC claims for e-scooter related injuries since 2018. The more than 10 thousand claims have an average cost of nearly 3000 dollars. Advocacy group Living Streets Aotearoa says they are dangerous and put people off walking on footpaths. President Tim Jones told Tim Beveridge that the law allowing them onto footpaths is set for review in September next year. He says the e-scooters can go way too fast on footpaths.
