While rental scooters are legal on UK roads, privately owned ones like the Nought One remain restricted to private land only.
In this episode, Jack meets with Ollie from Nought, a British e-scooter brand that’s not just making scooters, they’re actively lobbying the government to change outdated legislation. We discuss what safe scooter legalisation should look like, the essential safety features every scooter should have, and why micro-mobility is the perfect solution for short urban journeys.
