Hoverboards are two-wheeled vehicles without a handlebar. It is controlled by shifting your weight. A  gyroscope, also known as a gyro stabilizer, prevents the electrical boards from tilting while driving. Electric skateboards are also steered by shifting your weight, accelerated and braked using a radio remote control or an app.

Both may only be moved in "demarcated non-public traffic" - for example on separated or locked inner courtyards or the terrace. The reason: According to the Road Traffic Licensing Regulations (StVZO) and the Vehicle Licensing Regulations (FZV), means of transport that can travel faster than 6 km / h  "depending on the design", i.e. without physical exertion, need  a seat, a handlebar, brakes, lighting and a mirror . Hoverboards don't have all of that, but they are faster than 6 km / h. Therefore, public paths and streets are taboo for them.

Do I have to take out liability insurance?

Actually, the electric boards should be subject to compulsory insurance in view of their design-related maximum speed of over 6 km/h. Such insurance is not offered, however: after all, the vehicles must not be used in public transport - there is no need for insurance.

Do you need a driver's license for hoverboards and e-skateboards?

Yes. Only: The legislature did not care about hoverboards and Co. when it stipulated the current driver's license vehicle classes. It is therefore not possible to say which specific driver's license class would be necessary to legally move a hoverboard in public streets.

Theoretically, the boards could fall under motorcycle classes AM, A1, A2, A, but also under car class B. The result, swegway, Anyone who drives a hoverboard on the road without a corresponding driver's license class is also liable to prosecution under Section 21 of the StVG (driving without a driver's license).

Does private liability insurance pay in the event of an accident?

Damage caused by operating the electric board is currently not covered by private liability insurance. The driver must therefore pay for property damage or personal injury out of pocket.
