An Act definition and requirements of motorized vehicle

HD 4140 requires owners of electric bicycles and motorized scooters (defined as devices capable of exceeding 30 mph) to register them with the Registry of Motor Vehicles within 10 days of purchase. The bill mandates that motorized scooters cannot be operated without registration, a valid driver's license or learner's permit, and must not exceed 20 mph. It also expands the definition of "motor vehicle" to include such devices when capable of speeds over 20 mph. These provisions directly affect owners of e-bikes and scooters, adding registration, insurance, and licensing requirements. The bill focuses on safety and regulatory clarity for emerging personal mobility devices.
