In front of your eyes, there is a revolution taking place on the road in your city centres. As always, a revolution isn't taken equally to all. Depending on whom you ask, it's either an annoying thing roaming around the road or it's the future-ready to take control over the urban transportation. Either you're on the positive or on the negative side, you should understand what an Electric Scooter is and why the young lads are ready to take this tech as their daily driver.
This is a part of a revolution in micro-mobility
Electric Scooter. A vehicle which is a cheaper alternative than your regular bus, more suitable than your bike. You sweat less than walking yet go to your destination more quickly. The Electric Kick Scooter has brought an additional option to your wide range of transportation. Specially built for cities, it can reach you to your office or college quicker and safer. In cities like Paris, Berlin, Portland, millions of people are moving on an Electric Kick Scooter responsibly.
Though in the UK, it is illegal to ride an Electric Scooter in the public road, cycle lane or pavements. But right now, in the UK, it is legal to ride it only on Private land and Property. An Electric Scooter, which weighs less than 95 lbs (43 kg), is a part of a new movement called 'Micro mobility'. This movement promotes batter powered and utility-based transformation.
When it is the talk of a town, in Europe, more than 50% of all urban car trips are completed within a radius of only 3 (Three) miles. Where a single person consumes a whole car, it creates pollution, congestion on the traffic and higher rate of proportional use of energy per trip. The motive of this 'Micro mobility' movement is to replace those single-occupancy cars. These single-occupancy cars are causing more pollution, congestion and consist of more energy per trip.
