Lime officially launched its shared e-scooter and e-bike service in April, giving Canberrans more active travel options. But just like driving a car or riding a motorcycle, road rules apply when riding an e-scooter or e-bike.
Whether youโre riding a shared device or your own e-scooter or e-bike, itโs important to understand the rules and ride responsibly to help keep everyone safe.
๐ด Know where you can scoot: E-scooters may be used on footpaths, shared paths or nature strips and may only be used on roads or bicycle lanes where there is no available footpath, shared path or nature strip.
๐ฒ Know where you can ride: E-bikes may use shared paths and on road bike lanes and have the same rights to travel on roads as unpowered bicycles.
โ๏ธ Wear a helmet: All shared e-scooters and e-bikes come with a helmet.
๐ด One person per device: You must not carry any passengers.
๐ต Mobile phones: Donโt use your phone while operating a shared device.
โฌ
๏ธ Give way: You must give way to other pedestrians and keep to the left. It is the responsibility of all users to share the footpath and road and be mindful of other users.
โ ๏ธ Park sensibly: Park your shared device off the main path and away from stairs, ramps, light rail stops, bus stops and entry or exit ways.
๐ซ Don't drive under the influence: Riding under the influence of drugs or alcohol is dangerous and illegal.
Sharing the road is everyoneโs responsibility.
