SAFE Ride Act of 2025

The SAFE Ride Act of 2025 establishes a federal grant program to fund state-level electric bike safety initiatives. States must demonstrate compliance with specific requirements to qualify, including enforcing helmet laws for riders under 18, collecting e-bike accident data by demographics, and providing public safety education on helmet use. The bill mandates the creation of national helmet safety standards for minors and requires the development of public safety curricula for e-bike users. It directly affects states receiving grants and local law enforcement agencies implementing these safety measures.
