E-scooter and moped rental companies are gearing up for the new season and want to review rules with Tallinn officials, while the city says traffic laws should be set nationally.

“Traffic safety is the most important thing: the speed limits set by the city, parking conditions and standards. We want rental companies to also raise their customers’ awareness of how to park, how to choose speeds, where different nighttime speed limits apply and what restrictions are in place in the Old Town,” Jesse said.
“We will certainly stress that where parking areas are designated, especially in Kesklinn and Kadriorg, users may only end their ride in the specified parking zones,” the deputy mayor added.
