Electric scooter, rollerblading or skateboarding

In built-up areas

You must cycle on the bike paths. In the absence of bike paths, you can cycle in the following areas:

• Roads with a maximum authorized speed of 50 km/h
• The pedestrian areas, provided that you drive at a moderate speed (6 km/h) and do not disturb pedestrians

Driving on sidewalks is prohibited unless authorized by the mayor. In this case, you should drive at a moderate speed (6 km/h) and not disturb pedestrians.

Parking on the sidewalks is allowed, provided that pedestrians are not disturbed. However, the mayor may decide to prohibit it.

Use is also permitted on private roads (e.g., private property path, private residence driveway).

You must be old at least 14 years of age to use it.

The maximum speed authorized is 25 kph.

The craft cannot carry more than one person at a time.

You should wear retro-reflective equipment in case of traffic at night or poor visibility during the day.

Your vehicle must be equipped with a braking system, an audible warning device, lights (front and rear) and rear and side reflective devices.

To use an electric scooter (including self-service scooters) you must have third party insurance. This insurance covers damage caused to others (injury to a pedestrian, material damage to another vehicle...). It is recommended to contact your insurer to adapt your home insurance contract or to take out a specific insurance contract.
