So Philip O'Connor is a freelance journalist living and working in Stockholm, but he's been casting an eye over things generally in Scandinavia. voice-verified
Philip, good morning. voice-verified
Good morning, Pat. voice-verified
Talk to me about e-scooters in Scandinavia. voice-verified
Now, what sort of equipment are you required to have in Sweden? voice-verified
But you do need, you have to have a bell. voice-verified
For example, the number of people who whiz by and they've no way of warning you that they're approaching because the electric motor is relatively silent. voice-verified
So do you have to have a bell on your scooter, as it were? voice-verified
Do you have to have lights? voice-verified
Do you have to have reflectors? voice-verified
And do they encourage the use of e-scooters on cycle lanes, for example? voice-verified
Now, I presume the rental schemes, there's a kind of an insurance built in in the tariff that you pay for the use of a scooter. voice-verified
What about if you own your own scooter? voice-verified
Do you have to be insured? voice-verified

You're 12 kilometres outside the centre of Stockholm. voice-verified
I mean, are there loads of places around you where you can pick up an e-scooter? voice-verified

Also, I don't know whether you heard. voice-verified
