October 2006 saw the approval of the electric scooters Toronto. They now dominate the streets of this Canadian city. As a matter of fact, one cannot take a few rides in this city and fail to spot them. Gas-enabled two wheelers were the most common ones at one time but the high gas prices tainted their publicity.

Ever since they were tested and officially approved to hit the road, many vendors have established a great market for these products. The best thing is that one does not need any certification or license when riding. They do even have to be insured. The only possible requirement is that riders must be over sixteen years of age and wear a helmet.

Unlike the other ones, whereby, one needed gas in order to operate, these types of transportation machines only need charging for them to operator. They have mobile adapters which facilitates the charging form any other place, be it the workstation or at home, provided there is electricity. They ride silently and do not make any irritating sound when moving.

They have since been criticized for various reasons mainly by bicycle owners. In most cases, they tend to be ridden on bike lanes hence attracting the wrath of cyclists.

The major reason here is that they were grouped under the ordinary bicycles yet they are more advantages. It is said that they should be treated like the normal motorcycles. Cyclists also oppose their presence in the bicycle lanes. It becomes dangerous to them in case of any accident due to bulkiness.

The critics aside, electric scooters Toronto have been praised for conserving the environment. They do not dispose any form of gas in the air hence making the eco-friendly. This is the absolute contrary of the gas enabled ones. They facilitate noise pollution and release some percentage of gases.
