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.

On Tuesday, May 12 we hosted week 6 of the Wentzville Police Department Citizens Police Academy Class of 2026.

This week’s Citizens Police Academy session featured a trip to the range for one of the favorite sessions—firearms training. Led by members of our Firearms Unit, the evening began with a safety briefing and an introduction to our duty weapon platforms. Participants then moved to the firing line for hands-on instruction. With a wide variety of experience levels in the group, our instructors provided individual coaching throughout the night. Several participants showed natural skill, consistently hitting their targets with accuracy. 

Beyond target practice with our duty pistol at the range, they also learned about and shot our duty rifle and less-lethal shotgun. We discussed law enforcement use-of-force considerations and finished with a tour of the tactical training house. As always, safety was our top priority—and this class delivered both a great learning experience and a fun night.

Thank you to everyone who attended to continue learning more about the Wentzville Police Department. We’re looking forward to Week 7!
