Julius Sabatauskas
Julius Sabatauskas is a Lithuanian politician and member of the Social Democratic Party, recognized for his advocacy on traffic safety issues. He is currently in the news for initiating amendments to the Road Traffic Safety Act that would require all users of electric micro-mobility devices, regardless of age, to wear helmets. This proposal aims to enhance safety for scooter and bicycle users in Lithuania, where a significant percentage currently ride without protective gear. Sabatauskas has highlighted concerns regarding the rental businesses' lack of responsibility for providing helmets, reflecting on incidents where rental companies provided helmets that were quickly stolen. His efforts are part of a broader discussion in the Lithuanian Parliament about improving regulations for electric scooters and bicycles.
