Use of vehiclesQuestion #16138Multiple correct
Your electric scooter has a power of 1.2 kW and a maximum design speed of 30 km/h. What requirements apply to take part in public traffic with it?
Explanation
Once a device exceeds 1 kW of power or 25 km/h, it no longer counts as an electric personal mobility device. It then meets all the requirements set for a motor vehicle (a moped or motorcycle, depending on its parameters): registration, roadworthiness test and insurance, and the rider needs a driving licence.
KET reference: KET 66¹⁰: a device similar to an electric personal mobility device or a moped with power over 1 kW and/or speed over 25 km/h may take part in public traffic only after completing all procedures compulsory for motor vehicles (registration, roadworthiness test, civil liability insurance), with the rider meeting motor-vehicle driver requirements.
