Can California Parents Be Charged When Their Kid Rides an E-Bike?

from HOA HELL · host Michael Kushner

In this HOA Q&A, California’s leading homeowner-side HOA attorney, Michael Kushner, explains when California parents can be criminally charged because of their kid’s e-bike. Parents are getting prosecuted across the state right now for injuries, deaths, and damages caused by their kids’ illegal use of e-bikes or e-motorcycles, and a lot of them never saw it coming. Civil liability is always present. But criminal liability is now a reality, and the stakes get even higher if a crash, injury, or death is involved. 🎯 What You’ll Learn in This HOA Q&A: ✅ The two ways a kid’s e-bike (or e-motorcycle) ride crosses the line into illegal.✅ Why a true e-bike can still be against the law in your kid’s hands.✅ How a parent’s exposure rises astronomically once an injury or death is involved. For every California parent whose kid is out riding an e-bike right now, this is the one to watch before the next ride. Helpful Links: “Can My California HOA Ban or Regulate E-Bikes and E-Scooters?”https://mbkchapman.com/hoa-e-bike-rules-fact-sheet/ “Can My California HOA Ban or Fine Me for My Kid’s E-Bike or E-Scooter?”https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lERHpBEl3gc 🎧 📞 If you enjoyed this Q&A, please like and subscribe to HOA HELL.
