Finally police crack down on e-moto’s

From Boca police:

For the safety of our community, Boca Raton Police are cracking down on the illegal and reckless use of E-motos within the city.

As Det. Guberman explains, E-motos and E-bikes are NOT the same thing; there are some stark differences between the two, including where they can and cannot be ridden, and the requirements to be street-legal.

In educating the public, we're aiming to reinforce to children, teens and parents that the illegal use of these bikes put lives in danger.

Using E-motos on sidewalks will result in citations, and using them in a reckless manner on roadways, including fleeing and eluding traffic stops, may lead to arrests. Please avoid this behavior, for your own safety and the safety of others.

Wish parents would do the same thing. Buying kids these electric motorcycles and letting them roam free makes no sense. Probably the same parents that run red lights and drive through stop signs. Police really need to do more for road safety…..
