Starting January 1, 2027, Illinois will have new statewide safety rules for e-scooters, e-bikes, and other "micromobility" devices. If your family rides (or your kids are asking for one), this is worth a read!

Gov. JB Pritzker recently signed Senate Bill 3483, creating one uniform set of rules across the state - replacing the patchwork of local ordinances that left some of the fastest, most powerful devices largely unregulated.

Here's the breakdown:
๐Ÿ”น E-scooters (up to 15 mph)
Riders must be at least 16 years old
๐Ÿ”น High-Speed E-scooters (20+ mph)
Riders must be at least 16 years old, speed capped at 28 mph, no sidewalks.
๐Ÿ”น E-bikes (Class 1 & 2, up to 20 mph)
Riders must be at least 15 years old. Allowed on streets, bike lanes, and paths - not sidewalks.
๐Ÿ”น E-bikes (Class 3, up to 28 mph)
Riders must be at least 16 years old. Must be 18+ to carry a passenger.
๐Ÿ”น High-Speed E-bikes & E-motos (750+ watts, 28+ mph)
These will now be regulated like motor-driven cycles โ€” meaning a valid driver's license, title, registration, and insurance are required. No sidewalks, bike lanes, or paths.

The Secretary of State's office is rolling out a Ride Safe, Ride Smart, Ride Ready campaign with updated safety resources for parents, riders, retailers, and schools. Learn more at ilsos.gov/oneroad.

As a reminder, e-scooters and bikes must be walked in Lake Forest's Central Business District per existing City ordinance. High-powered electric dirt bikes and e-motorcycles are also prohibited in Lake Forest.
