In principle, you can go anywhere as long as you drive in the direction of travel and follow the signs.
The use of electric scooters for adults on highways and roads where riding a bicycle is prohibited is prohibited by signs such as bridges and tunnels.
When you ride an electric scooter, you are less visible from cars and more at risk of an accident. Don’t risk it!
In the path;
You can ride an electric scooter with cars on the road. In this case, you must follow the same traffic rules as other road users. This means, for example, that you
- yield to traffic coming from the right
- Pedestrians must have priority in the crosswalk
- must stop at a red light
- when translating the signal
- you have to follow the speed limit
- On public transport routes
A traffic lane is a separate lane on a highway. You can ride an Electric Scooter for Adults in a public transport lane. When driving in the traffic lane, you must be careful to avoid the blind spots of the bus.
On pedestrian and bicycle paths;
The paths and cycle paths are designed for pedestrians and cyclists, but can also be used by electric scooters. Keep in mind that while pedestrians can use both sides of the pedestrian/bicycle lane, drivers must ride on the right. Remember that as the driver of a vehicle, you have a special responsibility to be aware of pedestrians.
On bike lanes;
Bike lanes are separate lanes on the highway, marked with bike lane signs and road markings. Electric scooters can also use this route.
Two-way driving in the same lane is not permitted and you may only use the right lane of the road. Parking or stopping in the bike lanes is also prohibited.
If you are in a bike lane with separate traffic lights for bikes, you must obey them. Traffic lights do not affect you when you are driving on the road, sidewalk or bike lane.
On the sidewalk and crosswalk;
You may drive on sidewalks and sidewalks as long as you do not obstruct or endanger pedestrians. When there are many people on the sidewalk, you have to get off and roll the scooter. If you pass someone, remember to adjust your speed and keep a safe distance.
Information about crossings;
You may cross a pedestrian as long as you respect pedestrians. If you cross the crosswalk, you are not considered a pedestrian and other drivers do not have to yield.
On one way streets;
One-way street rules apply to all drivers, bicyclists, and motorists. However, some streets may have an additional sign stating that bicycling is allowed in both directions. This additional table also applies to Electric Scooters. When driving against traffic on such roads, you should be especially careful, as drivers often do not wait for oncoming traffic.
A one-way fix is usually indicated by a “No Entry” sign at the end of the entry ban and a “One-Way Traffic” sign at the end of the driveway. If cyclists and electric scooters are exempt, this is indicated by a sign “sykkel untatt” (“except bicycles”). If you drive on the sidewalk, the one-way rule does not apply.
