Self-balancing vehicles or those without any seat so called Personal Light Electric Vehicles (PLEV) are excluded from the scope of the Type Approval Regulation (EU) No. 168/2013 for two- or three-wheel vehicles and quadricycles (category L vehicles) thus they have to be regulated on national level since 2016. Furthermore, at that time a definition of micromobility devices was missing - and therefore different national categories with detached requirements were established. In 2019 SAE International published the J3 l 94TM for the classification of powered micromobility vehicles. A fundamental research project undertaken by the German Federal Highway Research Institute provided recommendations to integrate PLEV with respect to traffic safety into the existing road traffic. Subsequently, the legislative frame called Personal light electric vehicles regulation enforces the approval of PLEV and safe usage in Germany as well as administrative offences. Behavioural rules, technical and safety requirements characterize the PLEV regulation. In a next step, PLEVs market introduction with respect to traffic safety is evaluated in a current project with different aspects e.g. a market dissemination, user analysis and user behaviour, traffic surveillance and accident analysis.
