Know the Rules for E-Scooters, E-Bikes, and Other Motorized Devices

  • Riders of e-scooters must be 18 or older, per State law.
  • E-bikes must follow the Bicycle Rules of the Road.
  • Class 3 e-bike riders must be at least 16 years old.
  • Riding on sidewalks is discouraged and prohibited in certain areas, including Downtown Lombard. Refer to the Walk Your Wheels webpage for details.
  • Kids under 16 cannot operate non-highway motorcycles or similar motor-driven cycles (gas or electric) on public roads, as these require a valid driver's license and insurance.
