FAQ:
- Do I Need A License For Electric Scooter?
The answer is yes! A license is required for electronic scooters (aka, e-scooter). E-scooter is considered to be a micro-mobility vehicle. According to our Transport Minister, a valid driving license is needed to use a micro-mobility vehicle that’s capable of riding above 50km/h. However, e-scooter is not allowed to be used on public roads.
E-scooter can only be ridden on private roads such as in housing areas and private developments, and even on sidewalks, footpaths, and public and recreational parks. So if you thought of replacing your motorbike with an e-scooter, better take more time to determine this.
