Constable Mark Herman’s Office is reminding residents to know the difference between legal e-bikes and illegal motorized bikes before riding on public roads and sidewalks.
✅ Legal e-bikes in Texas must:
- Have fully operable pedals
- Be limited to 750 watts or less
- Not exceed 28 mph with motor assistance
- Follow all traffic laws
❌ Electric dirt bikes and other motorized bikes that do not meet Texas requirements are NOT street legal and may result in citations, vehicle impoundment, or other enforcement action.
⚠️ Parents are encouraged to speak with their children about riding responsibly and understanding the laws before operating these vehicles in neighborhoods and on roadways.
Our goal is to keep everyone safe while reducing dangerous riding behavior in Precinct 4.
