A man rides an e-scooter on Oxford Street on November 14, 2024 in London. During an appearance before the Commons Transport Committee, Transport Secretary Louise Haigh stated that the use of privately-owned e-scooters faces legislation, in a move that would make them legal for use on roads, with the current rules facing criticism due to lack of clarity and regulation. A series of rental trials continues across the country, which allow the use of certain e-scooters on public roads. Regulations could include a speed limit of 20km per hour, plus minimum braking and maximum acceleration requirements. (Photo by Leon Neal/Getty Images)
