Beginning this school year, the Murrieta Valley Unified School District—in partnership with the City Council, Murrieta Police Department (MPD), and the Riverside County Sheriff's Department is implementing new safety expectations for students who ride e-bikes or e-scooters to school.
What Families Need to Do
In order to receive a parking permit and ride their e-transportation to campus, students must:
Wear a helmet at all times when riding their e-bike/e-scooter
Walk bikes/scooters once on school grounds and sidewalks
Only one rider per e-bike/e-scooter (no passengers)
Park e-bikes/e-scooters in bike rack or designated area
No “wheelies”
Obey all traffic laws and signals
Yield to pedestrians and school traffic
Important: E-Transportation riding is a privilege, and permits may be revoked if expectations are not followed.
Our Commitment
These expectations are in place to:
Increase student safety
Prevent accidents and injuries
Promote responsible riding habits
For additional information from the City and Murrieta PD as it relates to electric bicycles/scooters, please refer to this Electric Bicycles Resource. Student safety is a shared responsibility, and we value your partnership in helping keep your students safe.
