Queensland’s new licensing requirements for e-mobility riders begin on August 31. Most riders will need to hold at least a valid learner licence when using e-scooters, electric power-assisted cycles and similar personal mobility devices.
Police say compliance will be checked during road-safety operations. Limited exemptions apply, including some supervised younger riders, recreational areas and people with medical exemptions.
