You bought an e skateboard such as Inmotion K1 but you do not know where to ride? On the road? On the pavement? Or in your kitchen?

If we drive on the road, motorists are not happy; but if we skate on the sidewalk, there are the pedestrians who may block the way. After much research, I finally found the answer to the question.

Skateboarding as a game

According to the government, wheeled vehicles, i.e. skateboarding, rollerblading, scootering, electric skateboarding is not a means of transport, but a game. That is to say, to move in an e board skateboard, you do not need a permit or authorization, but this is only valid if you do not take the form of a race. So you can ride your electric skateboard in somewhere spacious, such as a skateboard park, a square, etc. The advantage of riding an electric skateboard in such places is that you can enjoy your skateboarding and do the tricks safely.

Using e skateboard for commuting

Anyhow, you may ride your e board skateboard on the road for commuting or supermarket. In such circumstances, the fans of skateboarding, electric scooter etc. ... are subject to the same obligations as pedestrians, it is to say:

● Use sidewalks 

● Respect the red lights

● Cross over pedestrian crossings

Keep safe always!

But be careful, and remember that you can roll on the sidewalk, but do not ride anyhow, especially at any speed. It goes without saying that you are invited to respect the pedestrians and therefore to walk in step. But what does it mean to “walk in step”? To this question, there is no ready-made answer, which means that dangerous driving in e board electric skateboard endangers the lives of others and thus can have unfortunate consequences. In addition to risk of causing a serious accident, you also take the risk of having to answer for your actions in the criminal court with a sentence of imprisonment and fine.

I am not to scare you, but you should become aware of your rights as well as your obligations. It is less dangerous for us to roll on the sidewalk, but we must understand that this is not a reason for us to become public dangers, either. Think of the fact that people are already looking at us strangely, because we are skating on a machine that they have never seen in their lives, but if in addition we become a danger for them, it clearly risks not only hurting us personally, but also to hurt the entire electric skate community.

So if you plan to track at 30km/h on a sidewalk, you should know that it is not only extremely dangerous but also strictly prohibited. If you are wondering what the maximum speed is at which it is possible to ride on the sidewalk with e skateboard kit and without being dangerous or outlawed, I personally advise you never to exceed 10km/h.

Now you know where to ride your electric skateboard safely and lawfully. Find one of the best e skateboards for sale and skating in the right place.
