Can children ride electric scooters?

Yes, there are electric scooters specifically designed for children. However, it is important to keep age guidelines and safety at the forefront. At Halfords, we advise that rider age limits are checked through the manufacturer, normally starting at age 6+. It's also best practice for your child to wear a helmet and other protective equipment before riding. Kids Electric Scooters are manufactured with speed limits and safety features that are meant for younger riders, to create an enjoyable ride that is still monitored. It’s currently illegal to ride a privately owned e-scooter on a public road, pavement, cycle lane or bridleway. Privately owned e-scooters can only be ridden on private land with the permission of the landowner. Customers should be aware that if they use a private e-scooter illegally, they could face a fine and penalty points on their licence, and the e-scooter could be impounded.

Do kids electric scooters have speed limiters?

A lot of them do. They're usually set up with lower top speeds than adult models, which helps make them easier for younger riders to control.

How do I maintain a kids electric scooter?

Keep the tyres inflated, make sure the brakes are working properly, and give the scooter a quick check every now and then for loose parts. If it's battery-powered, keeping the battery charged correctly also helps.
