A new school year also means new rules for students riding e-bikes, e-scooters, and other electric devices.
Recently, the Herriman City Police Department joined the Utah Department of Public Safety and Providence Hall Junior High to help parents and students better understand Utah’s new helmet requirements, e-bike laws, and safe riding practices.
A few important reminders:
• Riders under 21 are required to wear a helmet on electric devices when riding on public roads.
• Parents should know what type of device their child is riding and where it can legally be used.
• Proper helmets, safe speeds, and following traffic laws can make a significant difference in preventing serious injuries.
Before your student heads out, take a few minutes to check the device, check the helmet, and review the rules together.
