Mopeds
are great
fun.
This is what Ontario is doing
to make sure they're safe fun.
Regulations governing the use of mopeds are fairly new to
Ontario But they are necessary because. with 30.000 mopeds
on the road this year and a tragic record of 9 moped -riders killed
in Ontario traffic last year, mopeds def nitely must be - - and are
- - considered as vehicles under The Highway Traffic Act.
The rul6s and regulations are simple
• Mopeds must not weigh over 120 pounds
• They must have operable pedals at all times
• Their speed must not exceed 30 miles per hour in one mile
from a standing start .
• They are prohibited from travelling on expressways
• Drivers must be 16 or older and have a valid Ontario drivers
license or temporary instruction permit
• License plates aFe required, and cost $5 00
• Mopeds must be insured for public liability and properly
damage
• Helmets - - while not yet required - - are recommended
