Ahead of Black Friday and the Late Late Toy Show, the Road Safety Authority (RSA) has strongly advised against purchasing e-scooters, scramblers, or quad bikes for children this Christmas.

As part of new laws introduced in May this year, individuals must be at least 16 years old to legally use an e-scooter in Ireland.
