Can electric scooters carry passengers?
2 Answers
On urban roads, they can carry one child under the age of 12, while on other roads, they can carry no more than one person. Here is some relevant information about electric vehicles: Introduction: Electric vehicles, also known as electric-powered vehicles, are divided into AC electric vehicles and DC electric vehicles. Typically, electric vehicles use batteries as their energy source, converting electrical energy into mechanical motion through components such as controllers and motors, with speed controlled by adjusting the current. Expansion: Electric vehicles do not account for a large share of the national economy. However, they align with the national trend of energy conservation and environmental protection, greatly facilitating short-distance transportation. Most importantly, they play a significant role in the national economy by saving and protecting energy and the environment.
Let me break it down whether e-bikes can carry passengers. According to traffic regulations in most Chinese cities, electric bicycles are generally allowed to carry one child under 12 years old, but strictly prohibited from carrying adults - otherwise you'll get fined hundreds of yuan if caught by traffic police. I've seen many neighbors in my community get penalized. The main reasons are the limited power of these vehicles - overloading increases braking distance and makes them prone to tipping when turning, creating significant safety hazards. When I use my e-bike to take my kid to school, we always wear helmets. I recommend making this a habit whether carrying passengers or not. Also, regulations vary by region - Beijing strictly limits the child's age, while Shanghai is slightly more lenient but emphasizes safety. Check your local traffic rules, don't cut corners by overloading, as it's not worth risking injuries or damaging the motor.
