Is it legal to ride a scooter on the street or sidewalk?

It depends on what county and state you live in.

Your best bet is to check: http://www.electricscooterparts.com/laws.html which links to the DMV web sites for each state.

In California for instance, they were once illegal in the street, but now are illegal on sidewalks and legal in the street with a whole bunch of laws concerning their use. You now have to have a driver's license in California to operate one as well.

Generally motorized vehicles and bicycles are not allowed on sidewalks in some downtown areas. It is usually a local ordinance.

That said, there are also exceptions for motorized wheelchairs and even some places allow Segways.

holiday with a helmet and don't do something loopy. stick to the guidelines of the line. end signs and warning signs, site visitors lighting fixtures furnishings, holiday on the main suitable fringe of the line , stay removed from pedestrians. the relaxing of city using is weaving up and down from sidewalk to highway as mandatory. Your attempting to avert GRAVAL, FUNKY BUMPS, moist SPOTS, POT HOLES and extra ! making use of alleys is a physically powerful thank you to get the place your going. donning conserving clothing like gloves,knee pads will help once you wipe out and you will wipe out. the superb thing appropriate to the circulate-Ped spill is that it would not kill ya!

i dont think you can ride it in the middle of the street. on the side where the cars arent driving directally on is fine. and sidewalks are 100% legal to ride on.

Yes i think motor scooters are only illegal. Dont drive it in the street

Depends on your local laws. Some areas they are not allowed at all.

you can ride it on the side walk but not the street.
