According to a report by RND, many people are skeptical about e-scooters and fear accidents and rule violations. Some experts are therefore calling for compulsory insurance for e-scooters in order to be covered in the event of damage. It is also being discussed whether a driver's license or a driving license should be necessary for e-scooters.

As an economic expert, I consider the possible effects of compulsory insurance for e-scooters. The introduction of such an insurance requirement could lead to higher costs for users, as they would also have to take out insurance in addition to purchasing the e-scooter. This could deter potential buyers and have a negative impact on the sales market for e-scooters.

In addition, compulsory insurance could also have an impact on the competitiveness of sharing providers. Compulsory insurance could increase their operating costs and thus increase prices for users. This in turn could lead to fewer people being willing to use e-scooters from sharing providers, which would have a negative impact on their sales.

It is important that the interests of consumers and companies are also taken into account when discussing compulsory insurance for e-scooters. A balanced regulation that ensures safety but at the same time does not limit the attractiveness and competitiveness of the e-scooter market is crucial.
