Top tips for e-scooting safely


Wear a helmet – your brain is important, protect it! Also, in the ACT, it’s the law.

Ride nicely. Give people space and use your judgement. Travel at the appropriate and safe speed for the environment you are travelling in and be respectful to pedestrians and other path users. Sharing the road is everyone’s responsibility!

Ride to the conditions. There are speed limits in different places, but sometimes you need to go slower. Use your judgment.

Keep our city nice for everyone. Park with consideration for others. Park your e-scooter off the main path and away from stairs, ramps, light rail stops, bus stops and entry or exit ways.
