Ireland may ban scrambler bikes in public by March 2026 after an 18-year-old’s death, under “Grace’s Law.”

A total ban on scrambler bikes in public spaces in Ireland could take effect by March 2026, following the death of 18-year-old Grace Lynch in a scrambler crash. The proposed law, named “Grace’s Law,” aims to establish a legal definition of scramblers and strengthen garda enforcement powers. Draft regulations are under review by the Attorney General’s Office, with finalization expected within weeks. The ban will extend existing restrictions to all public areas, addressing safety concerns highlighted by nearly 60 serious injuries or fatalities from scrambler crashes between 2021 and 2025. A separate process continues for e-scooters and e-bikes.
