The Ministry of Interior is reportedly preparing stringent legal measures concerning the operation of electric scooters. During recent discussions, Pançe Toshkovski voiced a strong personal inclination toward imposing a complete ban on the use of these devices, regardless of the rider’s age or specific circumstances. Toshkovski emphasized that his primary concern centers on the safety of individuals, particularly those who become injured using the vehicles.
He suggested that a comprehensive ban would be the most appropriate measure to ensure public safety. However, he clarified that while he advocates for this strict approach, the ultimate decision-making authority rests with the Parliament, not solely with the Ministry of Interior. Despite the ministerial input, the proposed regulations are expected to undergo consultation with academic experts.
These expert recommendations will shape the final proposal that will be submitted to the legislative body for deliberation. Toshkovski indicated that the resulting measures are anticipated to be significantly more rigorous than current guidelines. The ongoing debate surrounding the use of electric scooters highlights a growing legislative focus on regulating personal mobility devices.
Authorities are weighing the convenience of these vehicles against the documented risks they pose to public safety. The discussion continues to build toward a definitive policy regarding the operation and potential ban of these electric scooters on Macedonian roads.
