“Sober and alone – so you run elsparkcykel”

“Elsparkcyklarna, which is becoming more and more in Sweden’s major cities, hailed for its flexibility and eco-friendliness.”

“But the vehicles have also criticised, and the police appeal to his common sense in order to prevent serious accidents.”

“– It’s fun that it appears new means of transport that are environmentally friendly. At the same time, we see unfortunately the drivers where it is lacking in the common sense, and the man whirls around on the pedestrian streets and sidewalks, ” says Johan Sundström, who is a policeman in Stockholm.”

“He is not aware of the occurrence of some of the more difficult accidents with elsparkcyklar but fear that there occurs a part.”

“– It’s probably just that I have not received the information, for I am absolutely convinced that accidents occur with these vehicles.”

“Johan Sundström is particularly concerned that so few elsparkcyklister use the helmet and says that it is just”

“” I have never seen someone who has a helmet on elsparkcyklarna. It includes the as well as not. You take it that the pedestrians only. And where I think we have a number of injuries, ” says Johan Sundström.”

“But there are also other trafikfarliga and sometimes illegal behavior among elsparksförarna that the police would like to stop. One of them is to not be alone on the elsparkcykeln.”

“– To go to more than one person at a elsparkcykel is a clear violation of the law. You have taken more passengers than the vehicle is well equipped and it costs 500 kronor in fines. It is the same amount as if you are four passengers in a rear seat designed for three people.”

“Johan Sundström says that the police would like to appeal to elsparkscyklisterna that they should use their common sense, how boring and cliche it sounds. He says that it is about such simple things as using it in the same way and in the same places as a regular bike and respect other road users and pedestrians.”

“And so shall you be sober too, as when cycling, and show respect,” says Johan Sundström.”

“A elsparkcykel is an electric vehicle without trampor that are allowed to run in a maximum of 20 kilometres an hour.”

“Elsparkcyklarna be placed out of firms around in those cities. The idea is that you via a mobile app can pick a elsparkcykel from the street, drive a bit and then leave it where you want.”

“You don’t need to find any particular designated place or any place to leave it.”

“But – in order to rent one is you had to register with the relevant company. Elsparkcykeln unlocked via the app – which also paid for the trip.”

“During the night collected the elsparkcyklar that is in need of charging by the enterprises engaged. When they are loaded, they are once again out on the town.”
