Good morning, John,
We're asking for your help to update the Illinois Vehicle Code to include sensible regulations for micromobility in Illinois.
Micromobility devices are practical, accessible, affordable, equitable means of transportation. The popularity of micromobility devices—including e-bikes, e-motos and e-scooters—has increased drastically in recent years. In many Illinois communities, children using these devices have caused crashes that result in injury to themselves and others.
SB3336 aims to bring clarity and safety to our streets, bike lanes, and multiuse trails as new mobility modes increase in popularity. This bill safely and properly integrates micromobility devices into state law, establishes age restrictions, and implements sensible regulations for the use of high-speed devices, like e-motos. Updates to the Illinois Vehicle Code included in this bill will allow the state, municipalities, and law enforcement to embrace new mobility modes while retaining a focus on public safety.

Illinois residents are encouraged to send an email to their State Senator asking them to support SB3336 when it is voted on by the full Illinois Senate.
