California AB965 prohibits selling class 3 electric bicycles to minors under 16, with violations punishable by a fine.

California AB965 amends the Vehicle Code to prohibit the sale of class 3 electric bicycles to individuals under 16 years of age. A class 3 electric bicycle is defined as a bicycle equipped with a motor that provides assistance only when the rider is pedaling and ceases to provide assistance when the bicycle reaches the speed of 20 miles per hour. A violation of this provision is classified as an infraction and is punishable by a fine not exceeding $250. This bill creates a new infraction, imposing a state-mandated local program.
