Question 22162 — road safety

Summary

Mr. Vincent Descoeur draws the attention of the Minister of the Interior to the draft decree which aims to modify the highway code to give status to motorized personal travel devices (EDP). It appears that this decree could prohibit the circulation of these machines outside urban areas, where it would only be authorized on cycle paths and greenways. This ban could prove penalizing for residents of areas rural areas and even more for professionals who develop tourist products with, for example, all-terrain electric scooters with which they may be required to take sections of roads on which the maximum authorized speed is greater than 50 km/h in order to reach paths or visiting sites. There is objectively no reason to treat motorized EDPs from bicycles differently which, they can travel outside urban areas. Likewise, non-motorised EDPs, which the regulations treat as pedestrians, can also travel under certain conditions on roads outside urban areas. He asks him if the Government plans to authorize the circulation of motorized EDPs outside urban areas, and if it is considering provisions to allow professionals to use these machines for tourist discovery purposes. outside urban areas.
