Officer Blackford Addresses Safety Concerns Regarding E-Moto Bikes in Vanelia Parks

Officer Britney Blackford addressed the increasing presence and misuse of e-moto bikes in local parks, clarifying the distinctions between legal ebikes and unregistered, high-speed e-moto bikes. She emphasized that e-moto bikes, often resembling electric dirt bikes, are not street-legal without proper registration, insurance, and safety equipment like turn signals and headlights, and their use in parks poses a safety risk to park visitors. Enforcement will be based on the Ohio Vice Code to manage these issues and protect park safety.
