A report into the use of non-registered motorised vehicles is being drafted now. The report will go to the NSW Staysafe (Road Safety) Committee within the next few weeks and is expected to be tabled late next month or early April.

The inquiry that commenced in February 2013 was set up to review and report on the increasing use of non-registered motorised vehicles such as motor scooters, Segways and electric bikes and their impact on road safety. It investigated a range of issues including vehicle standards, accident data collection, skills and competency training and insurance issues.

The NSW inquiry also examined how local governments and other jurisdictions were handling the growing popularity of non-registered vehicles.
