RELATING TO LOW-SPEED ELECTRIC BICYCLES.
HB 236 raises the minimum age to operate a low-speed electric bicycle from 15 to 16 years old. This change directly affects 15-year-olds who currently may ride such bicycles but would be restricted under this bill. The key provision is the age increase, which would require riders to be at least 16 to legally operate these vehicles.
