Pickering is creating its own e-scooter bylaw and they want your thoughts on the current draft.

In 2020, the Ontario Ministry of Transportation introduced a five-year pilot program to allow electric scooters on Ontario roads. Municipalities are able to regulate e-scooters in their areas but have to pass a by-law to do so. Otherwise, e-scooters are not allowed.Pickering is bringing its own bylaw to make sure there is a consistent approach to e-scooter use across the city.

The draft bylaw would allow e-scooters on city streets, but not on sidewalks or in parks/on trails. The scooters would be limited to roads with a speed limit of 60 km/h or lower, unless in a bicycle lane and operators would have to be 16 or older. Anyone riding a scooter who is under 18 would have to wear a helmet. No cargo would be allowed to be carried on an e-scooter. They would also be required to have a bell or horn and a white or amber lamp in front and a red light on the rear.
