I dont have a provisional or full licence, can I ride an electric bike?

Because electric bikes are in the same legal category as push bikes and not motorbikes you are not required to have a license to ride one. If you are over 14 years of age you can drive on roads, cycle tracks, bus lanes – anywhere you like really. You aren’t legally required to wear a helmet either (although we recommend you do). You don’t even need insurance, tax or MOT.
