“If a special unit of the Russian Ministry of Internal Affairs is created to monitor the compliance of drivers of personal mobility devices with traffic rules, we are ready to transfer them for use by law enforcement agencies,” the company’s press service said.
The prototype was developed based on the commercial electric scooter Ninebot S90L. It differs from others by being more durable and comfortable. The SIM has two screens that show speed, charge level, and information about slow zones. The presented electric scooter is made in white and blue tones.
Previously in the State Duma offered An “electric scooter police” will be created to monitor the compliance of electric scooter users with traffic rules. MP Vladislav Davankov sent a corresponding appeal to the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs Vladimir Kolokoltsev. Sazhin called such initiatives a fight against windmills, stressing that such a unit would require financial investments, and it is unclear what it will do in winter. The auto expert said that MPs should listen to the recommendations of the professional community.
