E-Bikes and E-Scooters

In September 2026, Orange County commissioners passed the Micromobility Ordinance, which set the rules for riding privately owned e-bikes, motorized scooters, and similar devices.  

Key Points:

  • Most e-bikes and e-scooters are permitted on county-maintained sidewalks, shared-use paths, bike facilities and roadways.
  • Unless otherwise posted, the speed limit is 10 miles per hour on sidewalks and shared-use paths, and 28 miles per hour on roadways, shoulders, bike lanes, bike paths and trails.
  • Electric motorcycles or e-motos must be registered in the State of Florida and drivers must have a driver’s license with motorcycle endorsement.
  • Street takeovers, stunt driving and reckless operation are prohibited.
  • Violations may result in civil citations, and fines.

Know the rules, know your device, share the space and ride responsibility. Together, we can help create a safer Orange County for everyone.
