There's to keep in mind that there may be different restrictions or permissions not only according to traffic law but also according to other regulations or more generally based on the context (private rules on private ground), e.g. vehicles with combustion motors might be disallowed in some indoor spaces (exhaust fumes, noise etc.) while electrial may be allowed. > > Hence the keys "scooter" and "electric_scooter" are out for me. > I'm aware of this ambiguity.

IMHO we should discourage the term even if it is widely used. Cheers Martin
