A Queensland parliamentary committee has released 28 recommendations to improve e-bike and e-scooter safety following a year-long inquiry into increasing serious crashes. The key proposals include setting a minimum age of 16 years for riders, requiring at least a learner licence, and allowing Queensland Police to impound illegal devices on first infringement. The recommendations also enable parents to be held accountable for younger children's violations through the State Penalties Enforcement Registry, while 16 and 17 year olds could face direct penalties.
