Without stopping everybody, how will Police etc, be able to tell the difference between rental and private? Traceability, road legality, insurance, for vehicles is tracked by number plates and vehicle registration.

Via something resembling a registration plate or a tax disc I’d imagine.

The rental ones will be going slower ;)

But actually
"enforcement issues have been considered with relevant authorities, and that vehicles can be made visible and distinct from privately owned e-scooters"

For sale : e-scooter rental skin. Make you e-scooter look like a rental while still having all the additional performance and tweaks.

(Not legal for use in public in the UK. This is a cosmetic product only and in no ways will make a privately owned e-scooter legal for use on UK roads. The Acme Corporation of Albuquerque does not promote it's use as a means to circumvent and local legislation.)
