Glenoaks Elementary School

The Glendale Police Department has provided the attached reference guide regarding the rules and regulations for electric motorcycles (e-motos), e-bikes, and e-scooters.

To ensure the safety of our students and remain in compliance with California Vehicle Code (CVC) and local ordinances, please review these requirements before allowing your child to operate these vehicles:

• Licensing & Age: Class 3 e-bikes and electric scooters require riders to be at least 16 years old with a valid driver’s license.
• Safety Gear: Helmets are mandatory for all riders under 18 across all categories.
• Restricted Vehicles: E-motos and electric skateboards are illegal to operate within city limits.
• Operating Rules: Require driver's license. Electric scooters may not exceed 15 mph and are prohibited on sidewalks.

Please ensure your child does not bring any vehicle to campus that fails to meet these legal standards. For the safety of the school community, if a student is found in possession of a non-compliant or illegal vehicle, parents may be contacted to retrieve it, and our GPD School Resource Officer may be notified to address the violation.

Please refer to the attached brochure for full details on enforcement and towing authorities. For further information, visit Glendale Ebike Guidelines.
