A midlands councillor is calling for legislation to be put in place.
Pensioners in the midlands are fearing for their safety and welfare, as a result of young people on e-scooters 'flying up and down the town.'
That's according to Independent Councillor Mick Dollard, who says elderly people are afraid of getting knocked over because the vehicles are so quiet.
Councillor Dollard wants to see legislation put in place which would give Gardaí powers to apprehend those riding dangerously on e-scooters.
He says it's only a matter of time before there's a fatality:
