The device may have one or more wheels, self-balancing provisions, provisions for the transport of cargo and may be for private, commercial, shared use or for hire. Examples of devices that are within the scope of this standard are – self-balancing transport devices with or without a seat (also known as hover boards) ; – electric scooters without a seat including scooters with detachable seats ; • lack of experience 214 and knowledge prevents them from using the appliance safely without supervision or instruction; – children playing with the appliance; – safety of riding/driving the device including aspects such as maximum attainable speed, stability, acceleration, braking, visibility, ergonomics, and reliability of driving controls such as acceleration or braking controls.

NOTE 101 An electric scooter with a seat is classified as an electric Moped and an electric Moped without a seat is classified as an electric scooter. As far as is practicable, this standard deals with the common electrical safety hazards presented by Personal e-Transporters that are encountered by all users. However, in general, it does not take into account – persons (including children) whose • physical, sensory or mental capabilities; or
