More and more places are banning e-scooting, and the new traffic regulations are just coming now.
As the government plans to tighten regulations on electric scooters, several cities have already imposed restrictions. In Szeged, over a hundred fines were issued for violations, while Kaposvár banned scooters from pedestrian zones. Békéscsaba has restricted scooter access to certain areas and limited their speed in busy locations. The national regulations may allow scooter use from age 14, with mandatory helmets for those under 18. Concerns about safety and the implications of violations are highlighted, with calls for education on traffic rules. The government is seeking public feedback on the proposed regulations until November 5.
