The City of Milwaukee has allowed the arrival of Lime electric dockless scooters to provide more transportation choices and expand public transport.
The law defines an electric scooter as a device that weighs less than 100 pounds and does not exceed more than 20 miles per hour when powered by an electric motor. Electric bicycles, mopeds, and personal assistive mobility devices, for example, are not electric scooters.
Electric scooters are not allowed to be ridden on sidewalks. Electric scooters are not to be operated on any public sidewalk, pedestrian path in the public parks, or on public school grounds.
Electric scooter riders are instructed to follow all rules of the road. Generally, electric scooters follow many of the same traffic laws as bicycles on the road. When available, electric scooters may use the bicycle lane and any paths designated for use by bicycles.
Riders are encouraged to use helmets while riding an electric scooter. The maximum speed limit for electric scooters is 15 mph.
Drivers of motor vehicles may overtake electric scooters so long as vehicle drivers exercise due care. Vehicles must allow a safe distance, not less than 3 feet clearance, when passing the electric scooter.
When parking electric scooters, the general goal is to keep streets and pedestrian walkways unobstructed. The electric scooter may be parked on the sidewalk or similar areas designated for the parking of bicycles.
It is important that vehicle drivers, electric scooter riders and even pedestrians understand the rules of the road for e-scooters. If you have been injured in an electric scooter accident, you should consult an experienced Milwaukee personal injury attorney - Natasha Misra Law.
