Electric Scooters in Paris: Controversial Vote Sparks Debate, Low Turnout Criticized

2023-08-27 09:19:40

However, this vote was under fire from critics, starting with the companies concerned, due to the low turnout (7.46%).

On the user side, we also deplore this decision, like Andrew, an American tourist who used an electric scooter as a means of visiting the French capital “very quickly instead of having to take the metro and see nothing on the surface“.

For the inhabitants too, the electric scooter was a means of transport “pleasant to walk around and navigate from right to left without having the stress of the car“, estimated Valérie, a Parisian.

In 2022, 400,000 electric scooter trips were recorded in Paris.
