After this, a window will open with the scooter number automatically filled in – all that remains is to send a message. Once confirmed, the scooter will be unlocked and ready for use. You can end your lease in a similar way.

The number of accidents involving personal mobility devices is growing every year. Last year, authorities decided to ban scooters on some streets and also introduced a number of other rules. Rental services also try to make using vehicles safer by limiting the speed limit and the minimum age for renting.
Last year, scooters returned to the streets of Krasnoyarsk on March 18. The season will open later this year due to weather.
