University Police increase e-scooter traffic stop citations
The University Police Department has increased the number of e-scooter traffic stops around Grounds, along with issuing more citations to stopped riders, as of April 1 in an effort to encourage legal ridership. In this new initiative to encourage safe and legal use of e-scooters, University Police are working to raise awareness of both state laws and local policies that classify e-scooters as vehicles subject to all traffic regulations through informational tabling and traffic stops that result in citations.
