Kick-sharing services in Yekaterinburg intentionally ignore the signs "Scooter movement is prohibited."
The authorities of Yekaterinburg will hold a meeting with representatives of all three kick-sharing companies operating in Yekaterinburg.
The reason for the disagreements was the lack of agreements on safety issues regarding the use of personal mobility devices (PMDs). Previously, road signs "PMD movement prohibited" were installed in the center of Yekaterinburg, and traffic police began conducting raids to monitor electric scooter users.
As reported by the Telegram channel "Yekaterinburg Main," the measures were taken after the kick-sharing operators refused to voluntarily introduce additional speed restrictions and bans on movement in certain areas of the city, despite having the technical capability to do so.
The authorities hope that the upcoming meeting will allow the parties to develop a compromise solution. It concerns the creation of clear and unified rules for the use of rental electric scooters, which will help increase safety on the streets and reduce the number of violations by users.
