If a go-ped is operated on the streets, it must be operated in a safe and legal manner. You must obey official traffic control signals, signs, and other traffic devices applicable to vehicles. You may not ride on any public roadway consisting of a total of four or more marked traffic lanes, or having an established speed limit of greater than 25 miles per hour. You may not ride on the private property of another, or any public property that is not held open to the public for vehicle use, without the written permission of the owner, the person entitled to immediate possession of the property, or the authorized agent of either.
Parents are ultimately responsible for the actions and safety of their children.
