Beverly Hills Continues Prohibition of Shared Mobility Devices Until January 2021

Beverly Hills, CA (December 10, 2019) - The Beverly Hills City Council tonight voted 4-1 to continue the prohibition of certain shared mobility devices within City limits until January 2021.

The ordinance prohibits the shared mobility devices, including shared electric scooters, from being placed in any public right-of-way or on public property; operated in any public-right-of-way or on public property; or offered for use anywhere in the City.

The Beverly Hills Police Department will continue to enforce a zero-tolerance policy on the use of shared mobility devices which will include impounding the devices and fines. 

Over the last 18 months, Beverly Hills Police and Fire personnel have responded to many accidents involving these devices, several resulting in serious injuries. City crews have also removed hundreds of scooters from sidewalks and streets that obstructed the normal movement of traffic and created a hazard.

The City will continue to explore the feasibility of a pilot project involving shared mobility devices to promote their safe use.
