Although e-scooters are becoming commonplace in most major UK cities, the law surrounding them isn’t common knowledge.
In our latest podcast, our senior associate solicitor Richard Biggs is joined by Lewis Winton, regional campaigns officer, and Erik Matthies, policy officer, from the Royal National Institute of Blind People.
Together, they discuss e-scooter accidents and injury statistics, the law’s view on e-scooter use and ownership, how blind and partially sighted people are affected day-to-day, and what can be done to make e-scooters use safer for everyone.
