We're targeting our vulnerable road users, so e-scooters, bicycles as well as pedestrians.
00:10
We want everyone to be safe up in their CBD area.
00:16
The traffic is slow around the CBD, being 30 and 40 kms, but our vulnerable road users
00:23
are the main target of our hop.
00:26
We've got Operation Pathways. It's going to run over April to June. We'll have a specific
00:32
couple of days that we will target the operation, mainly in the CBD, down the beach, like the
00:39
tourist areas, Poteau Road. We will be targeting school areas as well, and around the industrial
00:46
state midfields.
00:48
And what have been some concerns lately?
00:50
We've had a lot of concerns around people under 16 riding e-scooters. So to ride an e-scooters
00:56
must be over 16. Also, we've had a lot of people not wearing helmets and riding on the
01:05
footpaths.
01:06
What are misconceptions about scooters that people might not realise are a rule that they
01:10
might be breaking?
01:11
Yep. So the general rule around an e-scooter being compliant to be ridden in public is
01:18
that it can't be a high-powered e-scooter. So generally anything over 250 kilowatts is classed
01:26
as being a high-powered e-scooter. So some of the ones we've had around actually are up to
01:34
1000 watts. They're capable of speeds up to 40, 50, 60 kilometres an hour. And given that
01:41
people aren't wearing helmets, these are young kids like 10 to 12 years old riding these e-scooters
01:47
on the road, it becomes a recipe for disaster.
