Regulations for electric personal assistive mobility devices
(Section 316.003(83) and 316.2068, F.S.)
An electric personal assistive personal mobility device is any self-balancing, two-nontandem-wheeled device, designed to transport only one person, with an electric propulsion system with average power of 750 watts (1 horsepower), the maximum speed of which, on a paved level surface when powered solely by such a propulsion system while being ridden by an operator who weighs 170 pounds, is less than 20 miles per hour.
An electric personal assistive mobility device may be operated on a marked bicycle path, on any street or road where bicycles are permitted, and on a sidewalk, if the person operating the device yields the right-of-way to pedestrians and give an audible signal before overtaking and passing a pedestrian.
A county or municipality may prohibit the operation of electric personal assistive mobility devices on any road, street or bicycle path under its jurisdiction if the governing body of the county or municipality determines that such a prohibition is necessary in the interest of safety.
The Department of Transportation may prohibit the operation of electric personal assistive mobility devices on any road under its jurisdiction if it determines that such operation is necessary in the interest of safety.
Since bicycles are permitted on almost all streets, so are EPAMDs, except on those where operation has been prohibited by managing jurisdictions. Guidance for use of bicycle lanes is provided above.
