Scooter Parking

PARKING METERS & PERMITS IN EFFECT MAY 15-SEPT 15

Scooters and mopeds may not be parked in bicycle racks, on the boardwalk, or on sidewalks in Rehoboth Beach.

Description

A scooter has two wheels, a step-through chassis, and is powered by a motor; this includes mopeds. Motorcycles, motorized skateboards, motorized wheelchairs, and tripeds are NOT scooters. Vehicles with an MC tag issued by DMV are deemed motorcycles and not eligible for scooter permits.

From May 15-September 15, all scooters must have a permit to park on city streets and in parking lots 24 hours a day, seven days a week unless paying at a parking meter.
