As summer approaches, the Friendswood Police Department is continuing our “Know Before You Go” series to help the community stay informed and safe. In this video, Officer Ives illustrates the difference between an e-bike and an e-dirtbike. We continue to remind the community that those caught riding illegal devices are subject to the vehicle being towed and parents being issued a citation in accordance with Texas Transportation Code 521.548 (parent/owner liability).

Our officers have noticed an uptick in children riding legal devices safely and respectfully. Watch the video to the end to see how we are planning to recognize those who are caught riding safe.
