The Friendswood Police Department is proactively enforcing Texas state laws when it comes to non-traditional transportation. Many young citizens have been observed riding devices that are marketed as e-bikes, ignoring traffic laws, and putting themselves and others in danger.
Electric dirtbikes are not legal to be driven on the street or sidewalks.
Those caught riding any illegal device are subject to the vehicle being towed and parents being issued a citation in accordance with Texas Transportation Code 521.458 (parent/owner liability).
