PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
(17 November 2025)

Question Asked

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, whether the Department holds records on the number of privately owned e-scooters currently in use by the general public that are not covered by appropriate motor vehicle insurance policies; and whether any specific enforcement measures are either in-place, or being considered to ensure compliance with relevant insurance requirements.

Asked by:
Juliet Campbell (Labour)

Answer

The Department for Transport does not hold the information requested.

Enforcement of illegal e-scooter use is a matter for the police and a range of motoring offences and penalties already apply.
