Gov. Ron DeSantis signed a bill Thursday that will allow local governments to regulate the use of e-bikes and scooters by age, a provision that the Village of Key Biscayne had long sought. The measure had failed in the Legislature before, but had more urgency this session after the tragic death of Megan Andrews, a Key Biscayne resident, Feb. 14, 2024.

After an outpouring of grief for teacher who lost her life in an e-bike collision, Key Biscayne officials approved a permanent ban on motorized scooters and e-bikes. But even in voting for the ban, there is talk of easing the restrictions some day.

Rep. Vicki Lopez vowed this week she would pass a new statewide e-bike and scooter law and name it after Megan Andrews, the Key Biscayne resident who died in a collision with an e-bike on Valentine’s Day.

Proposals intensify in wake of fatal Key Biscayne crash that killed a beloved Key Biscayne tutor.

In Key Biscayne, “motorized scooters and e-bike enforcement” tops the list of priorities for the next coming year in light of three car vs. scooter accidents that happened last month.
