With warmer weather and interest in micromobility, take a moment to review!
๐ฒ๐ด Know Before You Ride! ๐ด๐ฒ
With warmer weather here, weโre seeing more bicycles, e-bikes, scooters, and other micromobility devices on our roadways and sidewalks. Before you ride, take a moment to review PennDOTโs PA Micromobility Information Sheet to understand what is and isnโt legal in Pennsylvania.
Some key reminders:
โ
E-bikes are permitted on roadways and in bike lanes when operated lawfully.
โ
Bicycles must have proper lighting when operated between sunset and sunrise.
โ ๏ธ Electric scooters cannot be legally operated on public roadways and may only be used on private property.
โ ๏ธ Different devices have different requirements for licensing, registration, helmets, and passenger use.
Whether youโre riding for fun, transportation, or exercise, knowing the law helps keep everyone safe.
Please review the chart below and share it with family and friends who ride.
