Transport for London banned all e-scooters on its network on December 13th due to safety concerns. All public transport in London will be banned.

Shops can still sell e-scooters on private land even though they are currently banned on UK roads and sidewalks. There are only legal e-scooters in use in London. Mobility scooters that are allowed on the TfL network are not included in the ban.

The recent incidents on our public transport services, which involved intense fires and considerable smoke and damage, have caused us to be extremely worried. We decided to ban them after we worked with London Fire brigade to figure out how to deal with them. Customers who try to bring them onto our network will not be allowed to use any of our services.

The local news reported on an incident in November, when an e-scooter exploded in a London Underground station, causing black smoke.

The agency said that the incidents were caused by faulty batteries which caused fires that caused toxic smoke. If a fire happened in an enclosed area, it could cause a lot of harm to staff and customers.

The fine for violating the ban could be as high as £1,000.
