E-scooter speed limits

[oyster]

The committee said the requirement for a driving licence, which is a requirement for people to take part in the trials, should be dropped, and that local authorities should be allowed to determine maximum speeds. Models in the UK trials are capable of a maximum speed of 15.5mph.

Just seen this comment about e-scooter speed limits. Can't help wondering what the committee imagines will happen if we have speed limits by local authority?

You can imagine transgressing a boundary by a metre could render your e-scooter illegal and you would be committing an offence.

Move house and you can no longer use your e-scooter. Or end up stuck with a lower speed set on your e-scooter than your neighbours.

Or do we have adjustable speed limiters? And see them mis-used to let everyone actually run at maximum possible speed (for that is surely what many will do)?
