E-Scooter Rules Get Tougher | Cork News

Published 1 week, 4 days ago
Description

E-scooter rules are getting a major overhaul: riders must be 18+, helmets and bright gear are now mandatory, and fines jump to 100 euros. Funding for public scooter programs is paused while reforms take shape. The crackdown targets rising injuries — especially among teens — and hints at future requirements like registration, insurance, and licenses. Meanwhile, the Road Safety Authority is getting new ambassadors and revamped education. A new bill will let local councils access crash data to target dangerous spots. This is a full-scale push to make roads safer through stricter enforcement, smarter data, and stronger public awareness.
