Transport for London is to ban people from taking e-scooters and e-unicycles on its network even if they are folded and being carried, after a number of fires caused by the devices., while another device held by TfL in lost property caught fire in October.The ban does not apply to e-bikes or mobility scooters.All e-scooters will be banned from the TfL network, even if they are folded and carried
Research by TfL suggested the problem with e-scooters and e-unicycles stems from defective batteries, which when ruptured can catch alight and emit toxic smoke. Anyone trying to take one of the devices onto the Tube, buses, Overground, TfL Rail, Trams and DLR could be fined up to £1,000. The only e-scooters legally allowed on London's roads are those hired in certain boroughs through TfL's trial rental scheme, as permitted by the Department for Transport . These are also subject to the ban.
