All you need to know not to break the law!
WHAT THE DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION ACT REQUIRES
A law should normally come into force in the fall of 2019 to regulate the use of electric scooters in Paris. The increasing number of users of electric scooters and other PDEDs (motorized personal movement devices), the increasing number of accidents and permanent incivilities compel the government to take action. This law could provide:

- Forbidden to park them on sidewalks
THE TROTTOIRS IS FOR PEDESTRIANS ONLY
- Sidewalks are prohibited to electric scooters since January 2019
- Obligation touse bike paths
- If there are no bike lanes, you must borrow roads limited to 50 km / h
- If you use the sidewalks, it is motor off and scooter hand
CHILDREN AND ELECTRIC TROTTINETTES
- The required age to drive an electric scooter is 8 years old
- Children are not allowed to ride on an adult's scooter
- Helmets are mandatory for children under 12 years old (as for the bike)
