Electric scooters have been the subject of criticism since they became popular. More and more people are choosing this alternative form of transportation instead of using other traditional motor vehicles, such as motorcycles. Precisely for this reason, the need for regulation has arisen so that good use is made of this new means of transportation.
To avoid new uncivil actions, the General Directorate of Traffic has opted for new regulations, which came into force at the beginning of 2024 with the Manual of technical characteristics of personal mobility vehicles, which was published two years ago in the BOE.
This new regulation contemplates a mobility certificate that all electric scooters must have in order to be used from now on. To make it easier for you when choosing a model according to your needs and in compliance with the new regulations, at El Comprador de La Vanguardia we have made a selection of different models and brands so that you can choose the one that best suits you.
