Local Fianna Fáil councillor, John Coonan, has urged e-scooter users to take care over the winter months and to wear hi vis clothing to make themselves visible to traffic and other road users.
Speaking at Monday's meeting of Kilkenny County Council, Mr Coonan, said: "Users of the road have a responsibility. In recent times there's been a noticeable increase of scooter users in dark clothes."
