ROThe Bucharest City Hall has initiated a public debate on a proposed regulation aimed at establishing new rules for the use of rented electric scooters by both users and operators. The regulation, requested by Mayor Ciprian Ciucu, seeks to create clear guidelines for using electric scooters on public roads. Key provisions include requiring users to be at least 18 years old, restricting scooter use to bike lanes or roads with a maximum speed limit of 50 km/h, and banning their use on sidewalks, parks, and public gardens due to safety concerns. The regulation also prohibits carrying bulky items, mandates the inclusion of GPS, lighting, and sound warning systems on all scooters, and aims to address the issue of abandoned scooters by limiting parking to designated areas. The proposal is currently open for public consultation before being submitted to the Bucharest City Council for approval.
