E-Scooters Should Be Legal in NSW

The issue

We all love e-scooters right? E-scooters are such a brilliant way to get around to different places in a short amount of time. They are a zero-emission machine and help the environment a lot but there is a problem. We can’t use them. E-scooters are legal to buy but illegal to use.

 


I strongly believe that E-scooters should become legal for a lot of reasons.

I will start to talk about how scooters can improve your health physically and mentally. 

Firstly, there will be more people outside burning calories. It will help strengthen your core muscles, improves your balancing, and improves your body coordination. E-scooters are a very fun machine to use and even though you are not physically moving your legs it is better than being inside at least! Now, let's talk about how scooters can save the environment in a lot of different ways.

 

If E-scooters became legal then there will be fewer cars on the road and less pollution as E-scooters are zero-emission machines. Scooters can also make an effect economically as well, let’s talk a bit about that now. Obviously, everybody wants to save money. So, why don’t we start off by saving money on petrol for your car.

If E-scooters became legal then these things will certainly happen; increase local sales, improve tourism, lower wasted productivity, provide affordable personal transport, and access to more opportunities e.g riding to school or work. This is all true as once scooters become legal more people will buy them and will have a fun time and save money. 

In conclusion, the main points I would like to address on making E-scooters legal are that it will help people improve their physical and mental health, improve the environment in a big way, and will help the economic system as well.

I also understand that there should be a speed limit as 12km an hour
