電動滑板車試驗：本地區(qū)和租賃運(yùn)營商指南

更新日期：2020年7月1日

1.?Background

To?support?a?‘green’?restart?of?local?travel?and?help?mitigate?reduced?public?transport?capacity,?the?Department?for?Transport?(DfT)?is?fast?tracking?and?expanding?trials?of?rental?e-scooters.?E-scooters?offer?the?potential?for?fast,?clean?and?inexpensive?travel?that?can?also?help?ease?the?burden?on?transport?networks?and?allow?for?social?distancing.

1、背景

為了支持當(dāng)?shù)刂匦麻_始“綠色”出行，并幫助緩解公共交通能力的下降，交通部（DfT）正在快速跟蹤并擴(kuò)大租賃電動摩托車的試驗。電動滑板車為快速、清潔和廉價的旅行提供了潛力，也有助于減輕交通網(wǎng)絡(luò)的負(fù)擔(dān)，并允許社會距離。

3.1?Vehicle design: current position

An e-scooter will continue to fall within the statutory definition of a motor vehicle. We will define the sub-category of an e-scooter as being a motor vehicle that:

• is fitted with no motor other than an electric motor with a maximum continuous power rating of 500W and is not fitted with pedals that are capable of propelling the vehicle
• is designed to carry no more than one person
• has a maximum speed not exceeding 15.5 mph
• has 2 wheels, 1 front and 1 rear, aligned along the direction of travel
• has a mass including the battery, but excluding the rider, not exceeding 55kg
• has means of directional control via the use of handlebars that are mechanically linked to the steered wheel
• has means of controlling the speed via hand controls and a power control that defaults to the ‘off’ position

In addition, to achieve this, and in agreement with trial areas, we will issue vehicle orders under?s44?and?s63(5)–(7)?of the Road Traffic Act 1988 for vehicles of particular operators assessed as being suitable to participate in trials.

E-scooters that already meet vehicle construction and approval requirements will also be able to be used in trials.

In this definition, after considering consultation responses, we decided to allow e-scooters to be used up to a maximum speed of 15.5mph. This matches the speed limit for EAPCs and geo-fencing technology could allow for greater flexibility for lower speeds, where appropriate, across trial areas.

We have also increased the permitted vehicle mass from 35kg to 55kg and removed from the original definition that an e-scooter should have ‘no provision for seating’ in order to allow seated variants to participate where they comply with our other requirements.

Finally, we introduced a maximum motor power – up from 350 to 500W.

3.1車輛設(shè)計：當(dāng)前位置

電動滑板車將繼續(xù)屬于機(jī)動車的法定定義。我們將電動滑板車的子類別定義為：

除*持續(xù)額定功率為500W的電動機(jī)外，無其他電動機(jī)，且未裝有能夠推動車輛的踏板

設(shè)計為只能載一人

*速度不超過15.5?mph

有2個車輪，1個前輪和1個后輪，沿行駛方向?qū)R

重量包括電池，但不包括騎手，不超過55公斤

通過使用與方向盤機(jī)械連接的車把實現(xiàn)方向控制

具有通過手動控制和默認(rèn)為“關(guān)閉”位置的電源控制來控制速度的方法

此外，為了實現(xiàn)這一目標(biāo)，并與試驗區(qū)達(dá)成一致，我們將根據(jù)《1988年道路交通法》第44和63（5）–（7）條，為被評估為適合參與試驗的特定運(yùn)營商的車輛發(fā)布車輛訂單。

已經(jīng)滿足車輛構(gòu)造和批準(zhǔn)要求的電動滑板車也可以用于試驗。

在這個定義中，在考慮了咨詢響應(yīng)后，我們決定允許電動滑板車的*速度為每小時15.5英里。這與EAPCs的速度限制相匹配，并且地理圍欄技術(shù)可以在適當(dāng)?shù)那闆r下，在試驗區(qū)域為較低的速度提供更大的靈活性。

我們還將允許的車輛質(zhì)量從35kg增加到55kg，并從**初的定義中刪除了電動滑板車不應(yīng)提供座位的規(guī)定，以便允許坐式變體參與符合我們其他要求的地方。

**，我們介紹了*電機(jī)功率-從350到500W。

3.4?Other regulations that apply to e-scooters

There are other regulations that apply to e-scooters that we consider are not relevant to running trials. Therefore, we propose to exempt trial e-scooters from vehicle registration and licensing (vehicle excise duty). To achieve this, we will amend the?Road Vehicles (Registration and Licensing) Regulations 2002.

We also propose to exempt trial e-scooters from the requirements for vehicle type approval. To achieve this, we will exempt e-scooters from the type approval requirements in the?Road Traffic Act 1988.

3.4適用于電動滑板車的其他規(guī)定

還有其他適用于電動滑板車的法規(guī)，我們認(rèn)為這些法規(guī)與運(yùn)行試驗無關(guān)。因此，我們建議豁免試用電動滑板車的車輛登記及牌照（車輛消費(fèi)稅）。為此，我們將修訂《2002年道路車輛（登記及領(lǐng)牌）規(guī)例》。

我們還建議免除試驗電動滑板車的車型認(rèn)證要求。為了實現(xiàn)這一目標(biāo)，我們將免除電動摩托車在1988年《道路交通法》中的型式認(rèn)證要求。

5.2?What will happen next

1)?DfT?will consider proposals to ensure our requirements have been met, including that the e-scooters to be used meet our prescribed vehicle standard, and suitable data-sharing arrangements between operators and the department can be set up.

2) The Secretary of State will then sign off administrative orders, where required, that will approve vehicles/operators to take part in trials.

3) once //////confirm/i/i/i/i/i/ied, local procurement processes can complete. The?DfT?is very happy to work iteratively with areas as they develop proposals, and is able to ‘pre-approve in principle’ ahead of procurement processes taking place and a final decision being issued.

5.2接下來會發(fā)生什么

1）?英國運(yùn)輸部將考慮相關(guān)建議，以確保我們的要求得到滿足，包括使用的電動滑板車符合我們規(guī)定的車輛標(biāo)準(zhǔn)，并可在運(yùn)營商和運(yùn)輸部之間建立適當(dāng)?shù)臄?shù)據(jù)共享安排。

2）?然后，國務(wù)卿將在必要時簽署行政命令，批準(zhǔn)車輛/運(yùn)營商參加試驗。

3）?一旦確認(rèn)，當(dāng)?shù)夭少徚鞒叹涂梢酝瓿伞Ｓ\(yùn)輸部非常樂意在各領(lǐng)域制定提案時與他們反復(fù)合作，并且能夠在采購流程開始和發(fā)布**終決策之前“原則上預(yù)先批準(zhǔn)”。

英國政府目前暫時沒有考慮個人購買的電動滑板車上路允許。
