The Craig Police Department reminds Colorado riders that e-bikes are legally bicycles and must follow the same rules—helmets are required for riders under 18, and all riders should obey traffic signals, use hand signals, wear visible clothing, and ride defensively. E-motos are treated as motor vehicles and require a motorcycle endorsement, protective gear, adherence to traffic laws, awareness of road hazards, sober operation, regular equipment checks, and compliance with local regulations.
