Legalise E-Scooters for disabled people who are able to use them
Legalise E-Scooters for disable people so they can legally use them on the public road, cycle paths & pavement. We think they would make life in general more accessible as they are more manoeuvrable & easier to store, more suited to younger people & far cheaper than alternatives.

Background
A disability scooter is not for everyone, they are often quite large & suit some specific uses.
We feel large disability scooters are not easily transportable with a few suitable for minor off road travel, smaller ones can get around more & slightly easier to get around flat areas.
We think foldable disability scooters are good to travel with in a car but may be limited on where you can use.
We think all are expensive & without aid are unaffordable.
A good E-Scooter can go most places, cheaper & easily transportable even on buses, it’s a no brainer really.
