country/state/province/city. It is the rider responsibility to stay informed of local
laws and obey them. You may contact your local authorities, electrical bicycle
shops or bicycle associations to obtain more information on legal requirements.
You are required to be 16 or more, wear a helmet for your own safety and use front and rear lights

hand signals, and where you can ride.
