Lower Burrell Police Department Safety Reminder: Electric Scooters and E-Bikes

The Lower Burrell Police Department has been receiving an increasing number of complaints and reports involving juveniles operating electric scooters and e-bikes in an unsafe manner throughout our community.

While electric scooters and e-bikes can be a convenient and enjoyable way to travel, they must be operated responsibly to help prevent injuries and protect everyone who shares our streets and sidewalks.

We ask parents and guardians to take a few moments to discuss safe riding practices with their children. Please remind them to:

• Wear a properly fitted helmet.
• Follow all traffic laws.
• Ride at safe and appropriate speeds.
• Avoid carrying passengers unless the scooter or e-bike is
specifically designed for more than one rider.
• Stay off private property unless permission has been
granted.
• Refrain from reckless behavior, such as weaving through
traffic, performing stunts, or riding in groups that
obstruct roadways or sidewalks.

Riders should also understand that some electric scooters and e-bikes may be subject to the Pennsylvania Vehicle Code, depending on where and how they are operated.

Our primary goal is education and prevention. However, officers will continue to address unsafe or unlawful behavior through enforcement when necessary.

We appreciate the partnership and support of our community in helping ensure that Lower Burrell remains a safe place for everyone.

Thank you for your continued cooperation and support.

Summer is here and School is out!

With the warmer weather, longer days, and school breaks, more people are out and about enjoying everything the season has to offer. That means our roads, neighborhoods, parks, and sidewalks are busier than ever.
As you travel this summer, please remember to drive safely and stay alert:

🚗 Obey posted speed limits, especially in residential neighborhoods.
🛑 Come to a complete stop at all stop signs.
🚸 Watch for children playing, riding bikes, and crossing streets.
🚶 Be mindful of pedestrians and joggers.
📱 Put distractions away and keep your focus on the road.
🚲 Give cyclists plenty of room when passing.

A few extra seconds of caution can make all the difference. Let's work together to keep our community safe and ensure everyone enjoys a fun, happy, and accident-free summer.

Have a great summer, and drive safely!

A reminder that the annual Memorial Day parade will take place on Monday at 11 am following the traditional parade route from Stewart to the American Legion. There will be a brief service at the American Legion afterwards as well.

Please remember that the route will be closed to traffic shortly before the start of the parade (~15 minutes) and remain closed until the conclusion of the parade so please plan accordingly.

Thank you

The Lower Burrell Police Department has been notified that the 2026 “Assassin” game aka “Splashzone 2026” has begun and is involving students from Burrell School District. Participation in this game has NOT been endorsed or sanctioned by the Lower Burrell Police Department or Burrell School District in any way. As in years past, the intention of this game is to eliminate teams by sq**rting them with water guns. This creates a substantial public safety risk for our citizens and students. Students are prowling around homes with sq**rt guns that may appear as realistic weapons placing the students in jeopardy. Additionally, reports of erratic or aggressive driving have also been filed in conjunction with the game. We are encouraging families to discuss the safety risks of the game and discourage participation.
