On Friday, the Social Democrats presented seven demands the party wants to put on the electric park companies to get rid of, among other things, accidents and incorrect parking.
These include reduced speeds, night driving bans and a maximum number of vehicles.
If the companies do not regulate themselves, the party will pursue the issue of a total ban.
- There must be tightening now, says Blerta Hoti (S).
"Well drastically"
The moderate chairman of the traffic committee, Toni Orsulic, agrees that electric scooters are a problem.
But he does not think a threat of a ban is realistic.
- It is very drastic to threaten a ban on companies.
What industry does she want to go into next ?, he says.
Toni Orsulic (M) believes that the proposal is not constructive and at the same time says that they have an ongoing dialogue with the companies.
- We must also see what tools we have in the municipal box.
Prohibition is not the way forward, he says.
Land lease tax is introduced
The so-called land lease tariff will soon be introduced, which means that electric scooter bicycle companies will have to pay SEK 1,200 per bicycle that they have on municipal land annually.
A decision made by the City of Gothenburg this spring.
It is also suggested that incorrectly parked bicycles be fined.
