Violation of scooter drivers without a permit
The Roads and Transport Authority in Dubai, in cooperation and coordination with the Dubai Police, has warned electric scooter drivers against driving without issuing a permit through the electronic platform launched by the authority a few days ago to provide the permit for free, in order to avoid violations.
The RTA cautioned that electric scooter drivers must ensure that they abide by the aforementioned instructions when driving on the specified routes and obtain a permit to drive a scooter through its website http://rta.ae.

• The user must fulfill the requirements of the awareness training course to obtain the permit, which is submitted through the authority's website.
• Holders of driving licenses are exempted from the requirement to obtain a permit to drive an electric scooter regardless of the licensing authority issued by the licence, provided that the user of the electric scooter is obligated to carry it with him while driving and to present it to the concerned authorities when needed.
• The obligation of the companies providing the electric scooter rental service to ensure that the user obtains a driving license or a permit to drive an electric scooter before allowing him to drive it.
