Barriers to the safe use of personal mobility devices

In this Decision Regulation Impact Statement (Decision RIS), the National Transport Commission (NTC) details the draft policy to address the barriers in the Australian Road Rules (ARRs) that prevent the safe and legal use of personal mobility devices (PMDs). The proposal is based on the Consultation Regulation Impact Statement (Consultation RIS) released by the NTC in October 2019 and incorporates extensive stakeholder feedback received in submissions and via a jurisdictional national working group. The Decision RIS includes a discussion on whether the preferred option safely addresses the problem and the impacts on industry, governments and the community. Additionally, further consideration has been given to the appropriateness of the methodology used for measuring the impacts of each policy option, and the appropriateness of the preferred option from a national policy perspective.
