This bill requires manufacturers and distributors of electric scooters and skateboards sold in Michigan to permanently attach a label showing the device's top speed and motor wattage. The label must be placed in a prominent spot, printed in Arial font, and use at least 9-point type. Additionally, the law prohibits anyone from modifying a device's speed or motor settings without updating the label to reflect the new specifications. These rules apply to micromobility devices that are distinct from bicycles, electric bicycles, or mopeds. The bill does not take effect unless it is passed together with a companion Senate bill.
