The Queensland Government will hold a Parliamentary Inquiry into the use of personal e-mobility devices (PMD), such as e-scooters and e-bikes, to improve safety and address community concerns across Queensland.
These devices are replacing vehicles and being used more and more as a means of getting to work, education or to link with public transport.
This increased use has raised issues around public safety and most concerningly, incidents of injuries and fatalities are on the rise.
There was a 112% rise from 2021 to 2024 in injuries to PMD riders, passengers, and pedestrians. Tragically, eight PMD users died last year.
