Following a number of recent incidents involving young people riding e-scooters, we are appealing to parents to stop allowing their children to endanger themselves and others.

Although these vehicles can be legally purchased in Scotland, they are illegal to ride on public roads, pavements and other public places. They can only lawfully be used on private land with the landowner’s permission.

Officers are urging parents and carers to consider the dangers of e-scooters and remember that anyone purchasing one has a responsibility to be aware of the law and implications.

Enforcement action can be taken against the rider and those who purchase these machines. Police can lawfully seize e-scooters when used illegally, whilst parents can be held responsible, leading to fines and points in their own licence.

Sergeant Mark Rennie said: “The legalisation surrounding e-scooter use exists to protect the public and is especially important because younger children do not yet have the judgement, coordination, or hazard awareness these devices require.

“This isn’t about being strict or unfair – it’s about understanding the risk.

“Aberdeen Community Policing Teams have been taking opportunities to engage with children when encountered on such scooters, however this is having little impact and we urge parents to please take action.”

If you have any questions or information you wish to provide to your local community team regarding the illegal use of e-bikes, other off-road bikes and e-scooters, please call 101 or email [email protected].
