rules for when you #rideoggy

---

Remember, people of all abilities use our paths and not everyone can easily move around a device that is obstructing free movement.

Our scooters can be ridden by individuals weighing up to 100kg, they have a range of up to 60km and travel at speeds of up to 25km per hour. These speeds will be restricted by the scooter itself in certain areas. They are also tracked by GPS and WIFI and are monitored remotely by our team.   

Rules for riding an Oggy e-scooter

For everyone’s safety, ride in a safe and respectful manner, especially around pedestrians.  

For your safety, you must:

• be at least 20 years of age, or 12+ with adult supervision and under the adult's user agreement and app login/profile with them riding alongside to supervise you.
• wear an approved bicycle helmet that is securely fitted at all times (unless an exemption has been granted for medical or religious reasons)
• not carry passengers
• not use a mobile device
• not smoke while using an electric scooter
• not drink and ride
• have a working flashing or steady white light on the front, and a red light and reflector at the rear when travelling at night or in hazardous conditions. This has been installed on every scooter. 

When riding on a path, you must:

• Keep left and give way to pedestrians.
• Travel at a speed that allows you to stop safely to avoid colliding with a pedestrian
• Travel at a safe distance from a pedestrian so you can avoid a collision
• Keep left of oncoming bicycles and other personal mobility devices
• Only use the bicycle side of a shared path
• DO NOT ride off-road, pathway use only.

Using an electric scooter

Electric scooters hired from Oggy E-scooters should be used on paths wherever possible.

Some limited access to roads is permitted but only in specific circumstances. Please see the Queensland Government website for the most up to date rules.

Penalties for non-compliance

If you get caught not complying with these rules you will be fined at least $133.
