Navigating Illinois E-Bike and E-Scooter Laws (2025)

By Tracey Conti • December 5, 2025

Illinois law, including updates in 2018 and 2024, sets a statewide framework for electric bikes (e-bikes) and electric scooters (e-scooters). Riders must follow both state and local rules, and parents or guardians can be held accountable for minors' violations. E-Bike Laws Currently, the Village of Sugar Grove complies with state regulations , and there are no additional local ordinances in effect. E-bike Classifications In Illinois, e-bikes are generally considered "bicycles" if they are low-speed (motor less than 750 watts) and have fully operable pedals. They fall into three classes: Class 1: Pedal-assist only, motor cuts off at 20 mph. Class 2: Pedal and throttle-assist, motor cuts off at 20 mph. Class 3: Pedal-assist only, motor cuts off at 28 mph. Key Regulations for E-Bikes Age: Riders of Class 3 e-bikes must be at least 16 years old. The state has no specific minimum age for Classes 1 and 2, though some local ordinances do. License/Registration: No special driver's license, registration, or insurance is required by the state for low-speed e-bikes. Where to Ride: E-bikes are allowed on roads, streets, and bike lanes where traditional bicycles are permitted. Riding e-bikes on sidewalks is prohibited by state law. Using multi-use paths and trails depends on local rules or homeowner’s associations; Class 3 e-bikes are often restricted from these paths unless explicitly allowed. Equipment: For nighttime riding, a white front light (visible from 500 feet) and a red rear reflector or light are required. E-bikes must also have a label indicating their class, top speed, and motor wattage. All riders must obey the "Rules of the Road" like any other vehicle operator. E-Scooter Laws A state law effective August 9, 2024 ( Public Act 103-0899 ), prohibits the use of low-speed electric scooters on sidewalks unless a local ordinance specifically authorizes them. Key Regulations for E-Scooters (where permitted locally): Age: Riders must be at least 18 years old, according to state law. License: No title, registration, or driver’s license required. Speed & Location: E-scooters are generally limited to speeds up to a maximum of 10 mph and may not be used on public roads with speed limits of 35 mph or greater (some communities set this limit lower, e.g., 30 mph or 25 mph). Not permitted on State highways. Equipment: Must have a working brake, a white front light, and a red rear reflector or light for night use. Only one person is allowed per scooter at a time. All riders must obey the "Rules of the Road" like any other vehicle operator. Important Considerations Off-Highway Vehicles: Any device with a motor over 750 watts, or one without working pedals, is likely classified as an "off-highway vehicle" or "motor-driven cycle" and cannot be operated on public roads, sidewalks, and paths. Operating these requires a driver's license, registration, and insurance. Safety: While not always required by state law, wearing a helmet is highly encouraged for all riders to prevent serious injury. All riders must obey the "Rules of the Road" like any other vehicle operator. For detailed state regulations, consult the Illinois Bicycle Rules of the Road guide from the Secretary of State.
