Know before you ride!

As more people take advantage of warmer weather, we’re seeing more bicycles, scooters, e-Bikes and other motorized devices on our streets, sidewalks and trails. To keep everyone safe, the City of Wentzville has updated its riding regulations to reflect the way people are getting around today.

These updates create clearer guidelines for where different devices can be used, especially as newer, faster options become more common. The goal is simple: reduce confusion, prevent accidents and make sure everyone (including riders, drivers and pedestrians) can safely share our public spaces.

A full list of guidelines and FAQs is coming soon to your mailbox in The Vision and on our website at www.wentzvillemo.gov/KnowBeforeYouRide.

Sorry for the inconvenience the link is working now, thank you. www.wentzvillemo.gov/KnowBeforeYouRide

Funny the link doesn't work. Guess we won't know before we go.

And how is this going to reduce accidents when it's not enforced? And what i read it's the same old BS and nothing got changed. Ridiculous. Mini bikes are allowed on streets, everyday Big guy in a go cart jeep with a 1 to 2 year old not buckled in racing on Michael Ave, and cheryl ann. Turned in many times and nothing. Lmfao. A joke
