At Tuesday night's Columbia Borough Council meeting, Mayor Leo Lutz said that police have stepped up enforcement of ordinances governing e-bikes and e-scooters. Riders have been cited for various traffic infractions.
“The guys are stepping it up, and there have been citations,” Lutz said.
Currently, bicycles aren't permitted on sidewalks, according to borough ordinance. Councilman Peter Stahl noted Police Chief Jack Brommer's recent reminder that e-scooters are prohibited on borough streets and sidewalks. Stahl said scooters are permitted only in designated areas such as [certain] parks.
The Pennsylvania Vehicle Code "prohibits the use of electric scooters, electric skateboards, and electric unicycles on public roadways."
