EXTRACT FROM CURRENT LEGISLATION IN IT ALY
Since the kick scooter is considered as a velocipede in the current legislation, it is not
subject to any provisions relating to homologation, approval, registration, plate informa-
tion or insurance coverage.
Electric scooters can be used on urban roads with a speed limit of 50 km/h where the
circulation of velocipedes is allowed, and on suburban roads only within the cycle path
on the road side. On urban roads, it should circulate on cycle paths, if present.
Electric Scooter drivers:
• cannot exceed 20 km / h when driven on the road and 6 km / h when driven in pede-
strian areas.
• must proceed aligned in all cases where traffic conditions require it, and in any case
when more than two people.
• if underage, they must wear suitable protective helmet.
• their arms and hands must be free, and must always hold the handlebar with both
hands, unless it is necessary to show the left or right turn
• must be able to see freely in front of them, both sides, and drive the scooter with the
maximum freedom.
• must wear the high-visibility retro-reflective jacket or braces from half an hour after
sunset, during the whole period of darkness and during the day, if weather conditions
require to turn the lights on.
• cannot transport other people, objects or animals, tow vehicles or animals or be towed
by another vehicle.
The scooter must not be equipped with a seat for the user, because it is intended for use
with standing posture.
The scooter must be equipped with a speed limiter that does not allow them to exceed
20 km / h when they travel on the roadway and 6 km / h when they travel in pedestrian
areas.
The scooter must be equipped with a bell for acoustic signals.
As part of the experimentation of road traffic, scooters can only be driven by adults aged
at least 18 years old, or by more than 14 years old with the obligation to use a suitable
helmet.
Although not expressly referred to by the new regulation, given that electric scooters
are considered velocipedes and are therefore considered vehicles, the general rules of
conduct of the traffic laws will apply.
