Our capital city needs space for cyclists and sends scooters moped from the summer of 2015, most likely on the road. That’s not all, because your only advantage as snorscooteraar away. From now on, you ‘just’ a helmet on.

Who looks at the figures can really no different than understanding for the proposal of Melanie Schultz van Haegen, minister of Infrastructure and the Environment. Since 1990, the number of Amsterdam scooters moped from 8,000 to 30,000, while the city now 613.000 cyclists counts, across from 443.000 in 1990.

That additional road users of course, you have somewhere to park, but after numerous other attempts see Schultz has no other option than this to create more space on the cycle paths. That will snorscooteraars a concern. They are most likely a lot busier to the advertising bike helmets, which, incidentally, only in Amsterdam.

The Fietsersbond is still just the flag does not turn off after the news, because, as they argue: the elderly and parents with children dared not more to cycling. “The safety, health and the enjoyment of cyclists are on the game. We want to also healthy alternatives such as the bike, e-bike and electric scooter boost.” These scooters are a minimum of 45 kilometers per hour pick up, so apparently not.

Schultz examines meanwhile how any offenders harder to tackle. Special investigators need to go check if everyone is actually his helmet on, while the police with laser guns in speed is going to check. That old-fashioned rollerbanken bring apparently not enough money in the coffers.
