New Jersey’s new laws regulating electric bicycles, electric scooters, motorized bicycles, and electric motorcycles are now in effect. Our goal is education—helping residents understand the differences between these vehicles and the laws that apply to each so everyone can ride safely and legally.
The graphics below provide a quick reference to the requirements for each vehicle type, including registration, licensing, insurance, helmet requirements, and where they may be operated.
We encourage all riders and parents to take a few moments to review this information and share it with family and friends.
