E-bike restrictions

Lake Worth Beach is the latest city in Palm Beach County to approve restrictions on e-bikes

The city commission voted unanimously to adopt the proposed rules being drafted by county officials.

The Palm Beach County Commission has not yet voted on its proposed e-bike restrictions, but once that happens, those rules will become the law of the land in Lake Worth Beach.



Key Rules Being Adopted:

• ID Requirements: Riders must carry state-approved identification at all times.
• Helmet Mandate: Helmets are strictly required for riders under 16 years of age.
• Sidewalk Restrictions: Bikes traveling over 20 mph will be banned from using sidewalks.
• Passenger Limit: E-bikes are restricted to a single rider (no double-riding).
