How an Oklahoma City
E-Scooter Attorney Can Help You

Dockless electric scooters from companies like Lime are making a splash in cities across the country, including Oklahoma City, Edmond, and Tulsa. Designed to close the gaps between public and private transportation, e-scooters are an affordable and fun way to get around town quickly when you don’t have as far to go. However, as riders, drivers, and pedestrians learn how to share space, accidents can happen and cause injury to innocent parties.

If you or someone you love was injured in an accident involving an electric scooter, the Oklahoma personal injury attorneys at Parrish DeVaughn want to help you get compensation for your medical expenses. Call or contact our firm online for a free consultation.

Electric Scooter Rules and Regulations in OKC and Tulsa

Lime scooter accidents are often the result of negligent behavior. To help prevent careless accidents, drivers, riders, and pedestrians should all be aware of safety precautions and traffic laws surrounding scooter use.

  • All riders must have a valid driver’s license.
  • Speed shouldn’t exceed 15 MPH.
  • Helmet use is encouraged.
  • Scooters should be ridden in the street, or in bike lanes when available, rather than on the sidewalk.
  • Don’t drink and ride or risk a DUI.
  • Riders must yield to pedestrians.
  • Scooter riders must obey the rules of the road, including obeying street signs and traffic lights.
  • Scooter riders may not pass other vehicles between lanes of traffic.
  • Scooters should not block the sidewalk when parked.

Some laws may be specific to your city. For example, in order to prevent scooter injuries in Oklahoma City, the city has geo-fencing restrictions on where scooters can be operated. Make sure to know scooter laws in your area before hopping on.
