This afternoon.

Following tacit government approval last week of a new Road Traffic Bill, which should, by Christimas, legislate, for the first time, the use of e-scooters and e-bikes on Irish roads…

…Nick’s old pals at Currys PC World are reporting a 70% increase in e-scooter sales in one week.

Jaimie Cantwell, Head of Commercial at Currys PC World Ireland said:

“With more people returning to offices, some are reluctant to use public transport or perhaps don’t have, or want to take their car to the office. We’ve noticed the significant demand for our e-scooters over the past few weeks, with a rise in sales of 25% compared to last year. We’re expecting a surge in demand over the festive period, with many people receiving an e-scooter as a gift this Christmas. Hopefully this new legislation will provide a lot more confidence for the e-scooter users in Ireland.”
