AN ACT TO AMEND TITLE 21 OF THE DELAWARE CODE RELATING TO THE OPERATION OF GO-PEDS OR MOTORIZED SKATEBOARDS OR SCOOTERS.

This Act will regulate the operation of go-peds or motorized skateboards or scooters. These devices, which vary greatly in design and can travel at speeds up to 35-40 MPH, are becoming increasingly popular among young and inexperienced riders. This Act would not require that the operators be licensed or that the devices be registered or insured. The Act does provide restrictions related to where and how these devices may be used, by whom they may be operated, and what forms of supervision and safety devices are required. The provisions are similar to those that currently govern the use of off-highway vehicles (OHVs).
