Introduced Text

Illinois HB4840 regulates personal mobility devices, exempting low-speed devices from registration, and sets rules for high-speed and moderate-speed.

HB4840 amends the Illinois Vehicle Code to exempt low-speed personal mobility devices and low-speed personal micromobility devices from registration and title requirements. It prohibits high-speed and moderate-speed devices from being marketed as low-speed devices. High-speed devices are subject to motorcycle rules, while moderate-speed devices follow moped regulations. The bill also mandates equipment requirements for these devices and allows municipalities to install signage indicating regulations.
