It is important as e-scooter and e-bike become popular that we obey some Footpath Safety for personal mobility devices (PMDS) ride rules including:

• PMDs are allowed on footpaths, shared paths, and bicycle paths but riders must always give way to
  pedestrians
• PMD speed limits are 15 km/h on footpaths and 25 km/h on shared paths, bicycle paths, and roads.
  PMD users must not exceed these limits and should ride with care for others
• Riders under 16 can use low-powered e-scooters (max 200 watts and 10 km/h) but must wear
  helmets.
• Scooters over 25 km/h are motor vehicles and cannot be used on public streets unless registered and licensed
