the Driver of a motorized scooters must 'during your journey over to the police to be able to prove that liability insurance is subscribed and kept in force. It can be done by electronic means, f.ex. through an app, says in a written response from the Færdselsstyrelsen.

German Tier proclaims, far from its statutory liability insurance. Press photo: the Tier

Until now, electric scooters from the Swedish Voi and the German Tier rolled into the copenhagen area to many people's pleasure and some regret.

Both løbehjulsudlejere maintains to keep track of insurance, but only Voi demonstrates in its app, which one should use in order to get access to løbehjulene, that there is liability insurance.

In the German Tiers app can not read a word about liability insurance, but its vækstansvarlige Noah Kruse writes in an email to Ekstra Bladet, to Tier to comply with all necessary forsikringslove.

He does not want to provide documentation for Extra Magazine or indicate which insurance company to use.

Noah Kruse stresses, instead, that Tier all the time 'working on transparency on all fronts'.

so far the enterprise is not much burdened by the transparency. There was a hard researcharbejde to, before the Extra Leaf at long last via the app found the company's terms and conditions. There are 22 points with several sub points.

One point is about the accident, and here it appears that the user assumes the responsibility, 'if this is to blame for this'. Responsibilities include according to the Tier 'under all circumstances an obligation to repair the damage and cover the losses that third parties be applied to, as well as to reimburse the damage to the VMP (impeller, ed.), even if the VMP must be replaced as a whole'.

It assesses Henrik Ølgaard, forsikringsekspert and advisory consultant in Insurehelp, as problematic:

- Everything is seemingly put on the user and his / her liability insurance. Therefore, it can be a challenge, if the tenant runs a person down and not have a liability insurance. TIER scooters disclaims responsibility and don't disclose where their product is insured, and where to contact for information about this. They write only that any damage to the product will be charged by the user, he says to Ekstra Bladet.

Ekstra Bladet has asked Færdselsstyrelsen, whether one considers it for a løbehjulsbruger is possible to prove that Tier has a statutory liability insurance.

’Færdselsstyrelsen has informed the Tier on the applicable rules for the liability insurance on motorized scooters', writes the agency, which has specifically instructed about the rules on the landlord's duty to obtain liability insurance.

the Extra Leaf has for days been trying to get the Tiers view of the fact that their users run the risk of a greeting from the police bødeblok, but løbehjulsvirksomheden is just as silent as their silent hired vehicles.
