Abstract

Current vehicle developments do not only focus on developing efficient vehicles, but also focus on creating environmentally friendly vehicles which are then known as green vehicles. One example of a green vehicle is the electronic scooter or electric scooter which has started to appear in Indonesia. Along with its emergence, the position of electric scooters as vehicles raises questions in the minds of various parties, namely whether electric scooters are included in the category of motorized vehicles or non-motorized vehicles, because this will have implications for determining the rights and obligations of users. This paper will discuss further the position and rights and obligations of scooters by using normative legal methods as well as statutory and conceptual approaches. The results of the analysis show that based on extensive and sociological interpretations the position of the electric scooter is as a non-motorized vehicle. This is due to the fact that although electric power is used more often, in certain circumstances, such as running out of batteries and road or weather conditions, electric scooters require human power.
