e-scooter regulations
E-scooter regulations typically require riders to be at least 16 years old and follow local traffic laws. Riders should wear helmets where mandated and avoid riding on sidewalks if prohibited—usually riding in bike lanes or streets. Speed limits are often set around 15-20 mph. Parking rules specify designated areas to prevent obstruction. Licensing or registration is generally not needed, but some cities may impose specific restrictions or time-of-day limitations. Always check local regulations, as rules can vary by municipality, to ensure safe and compliant e-scooter use.
