Gardaí & Cyclists Say New Legislation Won't Solve E-Scooter Problem
About this episode
This week the Government agreed plans to impose further restrictions on the use of e-scooters after a spike in children presenting to hospitals with serious head injuries.
However, not everyone is convinced that the new laws will make the roads safer.
Ciarán Cannon, president of Cycling Ireland and a former minister of state, and Mark Ferris, detective garda in Blanchardstown and GRA representative for DMR West, join The Last Word to outline why they think further legislation won't stop e-scooter misuse.
