Electric Scooters and E-Bikes

• As the warmer weather approaches, students will have more opportunities to engage in bike and scooter-related activities like commuting to school. Please find below a reminder of the provincial regulations regarding electric kick scooters and electric bikes (e-bikes).
• Electric kick scooters should not be used by students travelling to school or while on the school grounds.
• Despite their popularity in our province, electric kick scooters remain illegal for use on public roads, bike lanes, and sidewalks across most of B.C., except in a handful of communities that are taking part in a pilot program to test the use of them. The City of Delta is not part of the pilot program. Even in the pilot program cities, it is illegal for a person under 16 years of age to operate an electric kick scooter and may result in a fine. Click here for more information.
• E-Bikes: In B.C., it is illegal for students under 14 years of age to ride e-bikes. Students can operate light e-bikes at age 14 and standard e-bikes at 16. Parents or guardians of students below the minimum age must not knowingly permit them to ride an e-bike. For more information, including the definitions of a light e-bike and a standard e-bike, please click here.
