Legalize the Use of Electric Scooters on Public Roads in Pennsylvania

The Issue

My name is Rodney Kroft from LAMAtrek, and I operate a personal electric vehicle rental business. Our mission is to provide a fun, environmentally sound alternative to navigating urban areas. However, we face a significant obstacle - Pennsylvania's current law does not permit the use of electric scooters on public roads.

Electric scooters are more than just an enjoyable way to get around; they're part of the solution for greener cities and reduced carbon emissions. According to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), transportation accounts for 29% of greenhouse gas emissions in the United States. Electric scooters can help reduce this percentage significantly as they emit zero direct emissions.

Moreover, these vehicles can alleviate congestion in our bustling cities. A study by INRIX Research found that Philadelphia ranks as one of America's most congested cities, with drivers spending an average of 62 hours stuck in traffic annually.

By legalizing electric scooter use on public roads, we can provide Pennsylvanians with an eco-friendly transportation option that reduces congestion and contributes positively towards our environment.

Join us in urging Pennsylvania lawmakers to change this outdated law and embrace a cleaner, less congested future by allowing electric scooter use on public roads. Please sign this petition today!
