Abu Dhabi: The Integrated Transport Centre (ITC) of the Department of Municipalities and Transport in Abu Dhabi has issued new guidelines for riding e-scooters in the emirate. The authority has also launched an awareness campaign on how to ride bicycles and e-scooters safely.
ITC urged all not to drive e-scooters on main roads and highways, pedestrian paths and sidewalks. They must only use the approved lanes. All riders must wear a helmet and a reflective jacket at night. The e-scooters must have a white headlight and a red night light or a red reflector.
