🚲⚡ Let’s Talk E-Bikes, E-Scooters & Electric Rides! ⚡🛴
We’ve been getting quite a few questions about the rules for e-bikes, e-scooters, and other electric rideables, so we wanted to share a few important reminders!
✅ In general, e-bikes are treated much like regular bicycles, which means riders must obey all traffic laws, including:
🚦 Stopping at stop signs and traffic signals
🚸 Yielding to pedestrians
🚲 Riding responsibly and following the rules of the road
👨👩👧 Parents, if your children ride e-bikes or electric scooters, please take a few minutes to review these rules with them. A little education goes a long way in keeping everyone safe!
📍 Fowlerville Reminder: The Village has a local ordinance prohibiting the riding of bicycles, e-bikes, scooters, skateboards, and other electric rideables on the sidewalks in the 100 block of Downtown Fowlerville. If you’re traveling through this area, please dismount and walk (push) your bike, scooter, or other rideable until you are past the restricted area.
These rules help keep our downtown sidewalks safe for pedestrians, businesses, and visitors.
Let’s all do our part to keep Fowlerville safe and enjoyable for everyone. Ride smart, be courteous, and if you have any questions, we’re always happy to help! 🚔💙
