Are Electric Scooters Allowed on the Road in Shenzhen?
3 Answers
No, electric scooters are prohibited from being used on the road, and driving an electric scooter is considered illegal road use. Here are the relevant details: Detail 1: Electric scooters are classified as new types of personal mobility devices and are not considered vehicles, thus they are strictly prohibited from being used on the road. This is because the safety of electric scooters cannot be guaranteed, and accidents are likely to occur when the speed is high. Detail 2: According to the "Road Traffic Safety Law," non-motor vehicles allowed on the road must meet technical safety standards in terms of dimensions, weight, brakes, etc. Electric scooters do not meet these standards, are not classified as vehicles, and cannot be registered or licensed.
