Driving within a built-up area, you want to overtake an electric scooter. What is the minimum space to the side that you must maintain?

When overtaking an electric scooter within built-up areas, you must keep at least 1.5 meters distance to the side. This rule exists to protect more vulnerable road users, such as people on e-scooters, bicycles, and pedestrians. The extra space helps ensure their safety by reducing the risk of accidents caused by air turbulence, sudden movements, or unexpected swerves. Always make sure to give enough space not only to comply with the law, but also to avoid endangering those on smaller or more unstable vehicles.
