Moroccan Lawmaker Challenges Fines for Electric Scooter Riders Amid Legal Uncertainty

A left-wing party deputy has just questioned the Minister of Transport and Logistics about the traffic police’s tickets against electric scooter riders.

The traffic police do not hesitate to issue tickets to users of electric scooters. But is the police entitled to issue tickets against them? This is the question asked by MP Fatima Tamni of the Democratic Left Federation (FGD) to the Minister of Transport and Logistics, Mohamed Abdeljalil.

The elected representative does not approve of traffic agents already fining users of scooters and is asking for a moratorium to be granted to them, pending a review of the texts in force to take this new situation into account, reports Al Ahdath Al Magribiya, specifying that the government is currently working to have a law on the taxation of scooters adopted by parliament.
