Volume~$182
Transport

YES chance
DescriptionA proposal has been made in the State Duma to mandate a speed limit of 7 km/h for electric scooters on sidewalks and to introduce mandatory liability insurance. Currently, the software-imposed speed limit in “slow zones” is 10–15 km/h. If the amendments are adopted, e-scooter sharing services (Whoosh, Yurent, Yandex) will be required to update the software on all devices. Given the start of the peak season and the rise in the number of accidents involving pedestrians in April–May 2026, lawmakers may push to pass the law before the start of summer vacation. The key question is whether the 7 km/h limit will be approved at the legislative level.
ConditionsYes: if, by July 1, 2026 (inclusive), amendments are made to the Russian Federation’s Traffic Rules or federal legislation establishing a maximum speed limit of 7 km/h for personal mobility devices on sidewalks.No: if the 7 km/h limit is not adopted by the specified date (if it remains a recommendation or if the current limits remain in effect).
