Can I drive my scooter on
the roadway or sidewalks?
|
|
|
|
|
Popular motorized scooters raise concerns and
questions. WisDOT has issued a reminder that motorized scooters may not
be used on public roads and sidewalks. Although a wide variety of
motorized scooters are sold by various retail outlets statewide in
recent months, the small gas or electric-powered scooters do not meet
National Highway Traffic Safety Commission standards for motor vehicle
safety. As a result, they can't be registered and can't be operated on
any street or sidewalk within a roadway's right-of-way. Paul Nilsen from
WisDOT's Office of General Counsel notes that the law treats motorized
scooters just like lawn tractors, all-terrain vehicles, go-carts and
other off-road vehicles. In addition, anyone operating one on a street
or sidewalk without a driver's license could face charges for doing so.
For juveniles, such a citation could make them ineligible for a driver's
license when they turn 16. Motorized scooters may be operated on private
property where the owner has given consent.

questions when I call the police?

|

information as possible. All complaints are documented in our
system. Officers responding to complaints may need to verify
authenticity.
