Personal e-scooters remain illegal in public in NSW whether ridden on roads, footpaths, shared paths or cycleways.
However, rental scooters can be found all over the state, but have strict built-in speed limits and only operate in certain areas, such as pedestrian paths and designated low-speed roads.
NSW enforces a $362 fine for not wearing a helmet on an e-scooter and riders can also be fined $120 for exceeding the 50km speed limit.
