Regardless of whether you choose to ride a scooter in a province or state that has or has not legalized them, we ask you to prioritize wearing a helmet, riding in bike lanes, and always following the rules of the road.
By purchasing a scooter from us, you accept our terms and conditions, and confirm that all research regarding the legal status of electric scooters is the customers' responsibility.
1
Consult Online Resources
E-scooter law changes often make the news, and most jurisdictions have an online legal code database. These tools are often the most comprehensive, but are occasionally misleading - different laws apply to different classes of scooters, such as sit-down scooters and rentals.
2
Consult a Legal Expert
Online resources (including this one) do not count as qualified legal council. Talking to a lawyer or another expert may clarify the status of e-scooter laws in your area.
3
Consult Rider Experience
The people with the most familiarity with e-scooter laws are people in your area who ride e-scooters! Reach out to a local club or riding group and see what they say.
