Gahanna: e‑motorcycles classified as off‑highway vehicles; not allowed on sidewalks, multi‑use paths or public streets
Summary
City presenters said e‑motorcycles are classified as off‑highway vehicles and cannot be operated on sidewalks, multi‑use paths, park trails or public streets in Gahanna. The video urged riders to learn the rules before summer use.
Staff member said e‑motorcycles are treated differently from ebikes and other small electric vehicles and therefore face different operating restrictions. "E motorcycles like the 1 shown here are considered off highway vehicles," the staff member said, identifying the classification that determines where they may be ridden.
The staff member listed specific prohibitions within Gahanna: e‑motorcycles "cannot be operated on sidewalks, multi use paths, park trails, or public streets in Gahanna." Presenter also urged riders to prepare for summer by learning the rules: "This summer, know the rules before you ride." The video closed with a community appeal: "Together, we can help keep Gahanna safe for everyone."
