⚠️ THINK BEFORE YOU BUY AN E-SCOOTER THIS CHRISTMAS ⚠️

An e-scooter may look like an exciting Christmas present—but in Northern Ireland, it could quickly become a very expensive mistake.

Privately owned e-scooters cannot legally be ridden on public roads, footpaths, cycle lanes, parks or other public spaces. They may only be used on private land with the landowner’s permission.

If an e-scooter is used illegally, police can take firm action. The scooter may be seized and ultimately destroyed, while the rider could also face prosecution and other serious consequences.

Parents and guardians should remember that once a young person leaves private property, there may be virtually nowhere nearby where the scooter can legally be ridden. A gift bought for Christmas could therefore be seized only days later.

Before spending hundreds of pounds, ask one important question:

Where can it actually be used legally?

If the answer is anywhere other than private land with the owner’s permission, please choose a safer and more suitable present.

Don’t let an e-scooter go from Christmas present to police property. Think before you buy.
