Since March 1, the concept of “means of individual mobility” has been introduced into the SDA. That is, legally, electric scooters become a vehicle, and the one who controls it is now the driver. And this will change the situation significantly.
As auto expert Petr Shkumatov noted, electric scooter drivers, like ordinary drivers, are now required to pass an alcohol test. If the test is positive and the driver has a license, then they will be deprived of them. If there is no driver’s license, then the fine will be 30 thousand rubles.

Scooters were banned from driving on the motorway, but it will become quite real to see a “scooter” in the stream on an ordinary road. True, there is a restriction: they can only move along its right edge or along the side of the road if the driver is over 14 years old. But bike lanes and sidewalks are now a legal place for scooters weighing less than 35 kg.
Electric scooters are allowed to move on the roadway, on sidewalks and bike paths at a speed of no more than 25 km/h.
“Car drivers are required to give way to drivers of electric scooters. Changes have been made to many points, it is easier to remember the general rule: scooters must give way everywhere,” Shkumatov summed up. “Behind the wheel” can be viewed on YouTube.
