Lege TREND. Anatomy of statewide scooter regulation bill.

Tennessee is considering statewide regulation of scooters that would:

treat scooters like bikes
reduce confusion about the rules of riding e-scooters
promote sustainable forms of transportation
No scooter can be used by more people that it was designed for.
Scooters should be ridden as close as practical to the right-hand curb or edge of the road, unless passing another vehicle traveling in the same direction, making a left-hand turn or when needing to avoid an object, vehicle or pedestrian.
Scooters should not travel faster than 15 mph.
A person shouldn’t carry an item while riding a scooter if it prevents them from keeping at least one hand on the handlebars.
Riders should be old enough to operate a vehicle.
