Are e-scooters banned in UAE schools, and what should parents and students know about the new safety rules?

Many schools across the UAE — especially in Dubai and Sharjah — are banning or tightly restricting e-scooters and e-bikes on campus after rising accidents and safety violations, with authorities like Dubai Police and the Roads and Transport Authority requiring riders to be at least 16, use permits where needed, wear helmets, and stick to designated lanes; several schools now confiscate devices, contact parents, or suspend repeat offenders, while education regulators such as KHDA and Abu Dhabi Department of Education and Knowledge support stricter campus safety measures, though a few institutions like Delhi Private School Dubai still allow them under strict conditions — do you think schools should fully ban e-scooters for students, or allow them with tighter supervision and rules?
