[music] Let me pull you for a chat. Listen, before you try to become the next evil cone, let's set some ground rules with these serots and minibikes before you end up in court or in the hospital. Here's the deal. Arizona law says if it has a seat, goes faster than 10 mph and doesn't have pedals, it's not a toy. It's a [music] motorcycle or a motor-driven cycle. That includes Surirons, Taris, miniikes, or even your six-year-old sister's electric racer dirt bike that only goes 14 miles per hour. And yes, [music] before you ask, you need an actual motorcycle license to ride in a public roadway like you would for this. Not your Xbox gamer score, not your my cousin said it's okay. An actual motorcycle license. Doesn't matter if it runs off gas, batteries, or bad decisions. If it's faster than grandma's walker, then it's regulated on public roadways. Before you start yelling at me in the comments, yes, there is a difference. In Arizona, a real ebike will have pedals, an electric motor of 750 watts or less. The top speed is 20 to 28 mph. And those are fine without a motorcycle license as long as you're over 16 years old and off the sidewalk while being operated under electric power. Same with electric scooters like the Birds or the Limes or the ones from Costco. It's not a motorcycle, so you don't need a license, but you still need to be 16 years old to ride it on the roadway. But again, if it's an electric dirt bike like a Siron, calaria, or anything you sit on that doesn't have fully operable pedals or a floorboard for standing, that's a motorcycle or motor driven cycle under the law. No license, no ride. For those of you watching from the eighth grade classroom are going to have to stick to the old school manpowered bicycle for a few more years. And no, you can't skip the license or ride in the sidewalk or in the park when grandma's feeding the birds. Those are public spaces. Public spaces have rules. And breaking those rules can have real life consequences. >> Here's the thing. These machines aren't just illegal without a license. They're dangerous. Even at 20 to 30 mph, one wrong move could mean broken bones, brain injuries, or even worse. [music] On the road, you're mixing up with cars, trucks, and distracted drivers. There aren't any doovers if you mess up. And if you're caught riding without a license, we don't just give you a ticket. We take your ride for 20 days. Gas or electric, it's getting impounded, locked up, no visitation rights. Think of it as motorcycle jail. And the bail isn't going to be cheap, but the embarrassment will be free. If you still want to ride, wait till you're 16. Arizona law. Get licensed, ride legal, and keep your bike.
