Brussels has announced that rental electric scooters will be banned starting next year. The decision is primarily driven by safety concerns and the need to reduce urban disruptions. Local authorities cited a high frequency of accidents and widespread misuse as the main reasons for the measure. By implementing this ban, Brussels joins several other major European capitals that have already restricted or prohibited shared e-scooters. The city administration intends to "turn the page" on these devices to improve public order. This move reflects a growing trend among European cities to prioritize pedestrian safety over micro-mobility rentals. The official announcement was shared via social media to inform the public of the upcoming change.
