Has the law changed on the use of electric scooters etc on public roads? I'm seeing a lot of them on the road these days. Or is it just that the police have better things to do than chase them around.
Even stranger, this last couple of months I see each morning a bloke commuting on a motorized skateboard. He occupies the centre of his lane and keeps up with the traffic, and wears a helmet and elbow and knee pads. A part of me thinks that's fine, he's helping reduce congestion and pollution. But another part of me wonders where a motorist would stand insurance-wise if that skateboard lost control and ended up being a bonnet ornament.

e skateboards are illegal on public roads. e scooters, if legitimately hired through a scheme are allowed to be used as its a trial.
trials are being carried out in 32 cities around the UK.
E-scooters hired through these schemes can be ridden on roads and cycle paths and are insured by the operators. The scooters are limited to 15.5mph, with lower limits imposed in some areas via geofencing.

Grant

Looks like I was right. Check item 10. That'll go down well with the Porsche and Jag mob!Before long cars will have GPS governed speed limiting (I expect).

Number 6 could be interesting - making narrow roads impassable if many cars are parked on your side of the road. We have that problem around here with parents parking their cars to collect their kids from school.
Not that I approve of pavement parking, but sometimes it is a necessary evil.

Complete change of subject... does anyone have an iPad Pro and if so what do you think of it? I have an original iPad Air which is now starting to feel sluggish and can’t take the latest iOS upgrades so some apps no longer work, and am thinking of getting a new one, but if I went for the iPad Pro 12.9” it could probably double up as a laptop replacement with a decent keyboard. I never thought I would use an iPad but its probably the device I use most, so a better model might make sense?

You're really just wanting everyone to give you some compelling reasons to treat yourself
Well, it'll be nice and shiny, it'll have that screen protecting film on it which will give you a little buzz of excitement when you peel it off, and also it'll definitely do things better than your old one as well as have some features you never knew you wanted... Dammit, now I want one too
