Can electric scooters carry passengers?

[LaAmelia]

In urban areas, it is permissible to carry one minor under the age of 12, while on other roads, the number of passengers should not exceed one. Below is 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 high proportion in 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.

Regarding the question of whether electric scooters can carry passengers, I think it's good to discuss from a practical perspective. I once rode an electric scooter with a friend, but found it really unstable, especially when there's a big weight difference between the two riders—turning can easily cause skidding. After one fall, I learned my lesson. Electric scooters are primarily designed for single riders, with lightweight chassis and limited motor power. Overloading not only reduces battery range but is also dangerous. I recommend trying to carry passengers only on short, flat routes, and make sure the rear seat has footrests and protective handrails. Wearing a helmet is the most basic safety measure, and checking local traffic regulations is also important. For example, Beijing only allows carrying children, while other places may have different rules—these regulations are all for safety. Don't cut corners on this; regularly check brake and tire wear, and maintain your scooter for peace of mind.

When it comes to the rules of carrying passengers on electric scooters, I pay close attention to traffic policies. Regulations vary significantly across cities. For instance, Shanghai has strict controls—carrying adults is generally prohibited, and only children under 12 are allowed under specific conditions. This is primarily for safety reasons, as e-scooters have limited load capacity, and overloading can lead to brake failure or frame fractures. I recommend checking your local traffic guidelines before following others' practices. Choose a model with a sturdy rear seat within legal limits. Traffic rules aren’t restrictions but protections for everyone. When occasionally carrying passengers, maintain low speeds—safety always outweighs saving time. Never risk overloading; prioritize safety above all.

I've been commuting on my electric scooter for years, and as for carrying passengers, I can only say let's give it a try. Occasionally giving a ride to an acquaintance during commute is manageable for short distances, but it gets really uncomfortable after a while. The limited space on the scooter makes it feel wobbly when two people squeeze together during turns, and any bumps could easily lead to trouble. I suggest using it only as a temporary solution rather than a regular practice. Check the model's manual for weight capacity, usually not exceeding 100 kilograms. For safety, pay extra attention to the chain and tire pressure balance during maintenance.
