Changes to the laws around the use of electric scooters, including the introduction of a minimum age limit, will come into force next Tuesday, 17 June.

    This is the minimum regulation I’d expect of any country for these things, 10 y/o’s shouldn’t drive a fatbike

      I don’t like fat bikes either, but that’s a bit harsh.

      Electric scooters/ebikes sure they’re essentially mopeds, which requires 15+ and license in Finland
