Well, it depends on the electric scooter that you have invested in. It is not necessary that all the electric scooters are meant for gravel and dirt roads.

The tyres and the mechanism of the electric scooters play a major role in determining whether the electric scooter is suitable for gravel and dirt roads or not. The electric scooters usually come with flat rubberized tires or inflated air tires. The electric scooters that come with flat rubber tires are considered not suitable for bumpy roads, but they are extremely the popular choice when it comes to ride your scooter in gravel and dirt roads.

The inflated air tires are perfect for all terrains, especially the bumpy roads as it can significantly absorb the shocks. But, it can burst because the gravel on the road can rapture the tube inside the tires.

It is extremely important for you to wear all the protective gears while driving your electric scooter on gravel and dirt roads. Riding your scooter on such terrains can be risky if you are not wearing the protective gears. Also, you need to make the selection of the tires carefully as not all tyre types are suitable for all roads. The inflated air tires are good options if you want to avoid the shocks and jerks while riding, but for gravel roads and dirt roads, the best option is always the rubber tires. You can ride your electric scooter on any terrains and even on gravel roads if the scooter has the rubber tires installed in it. Moreover, the motor also needs to be powerful enough to create the friction for movement on such road conditions.

Whether you can ride electric scooter manually or not like a push scooter is a huge debate these days. It is important for you to know that not all electric scooters are meant to be ridden manually like a push scooter. This is a question that every electric scooter owners want to know. Usually the electric scooters are meant to be ridden for a stretch of 40-60 minutes with a single charge. But, at times the battery may drain out and you may face difficulty when such situation arises.

You can still use the electric scooter and push it around until you reach your destination, especially if you are using the dual electric scooter. The dual electric scooters is designed in such a way that it can be ridden both electrically using the battery power and by pushing it like push bikes when the battery drains. These dual electric scooters can work both as electric scooter and manual scooter.

But, to use the electric scooter manually like a push bike, you need to ensure that the battery of the scooter has drained completely. Once the battery drains out completely you need to switch the electric scooter to manual mode and you can start pushing the scooter around until you reach your destination. But, as soon as you find the charging point do charge the electric scooter battery so that you can again use it electrically with its motor. But, in case the electric scooter is not the dual one, then you simply need to get off the scooter and push it around until you reach your destination as riding it manually like a push bike is not possible with such electric scooter. So, it depends on the type of electric scooter you are using.

Yes they are legal! Whether or not they can be used on public roads is a bit of a grey area that there is some debate about. As our electric scooters need a manual push off by the rider to begin the journey there is an argument that they do not fall under the mechanically propelled vehicle law so you do not need tax to drive them on the road. The minister for transport is looking at bringing in specific laws for the electric scooters in the future also.
