That is roughly the rule in the UK but few people follow it and enforcement is minimal. Plus a lot of people just don't understand the laws on them in the first place.
It got to be such a problem in the big cities, especially with those rental scooter (as in kickboards or whatever, not actual motorbike-style vehicles), that they cracked down hard. A Chinese tourist even got arrested for using one of those powered suitcase things that exist for running afoul of the law (particularly because it was on a sidewalk).
