Where I live, you can get a DUI and lose your driver’s license if using a bicycle drunk.
Not that I agree with it. Not that I’ve ever seen it enforced. But the law is there.

I don’t even want to begin to think about the legal complexities around the electric powered transportation.
But I know if you’re caught operating one while drunk, it’s automatically way worse than if you were just biking. Because they’re “self-propellent” or however you want to put it.
Anyone under 16 is required by law to wear a helmet while biking. So they’re also required by law to wear a helmet while riding an electric scooter.
Surprisingly I have not heard of electric scooter incidents lately. But probably just a matter of time until someone drives themselves to death on them.
