Alright, Alpharetta, as we head into Memorial Day weekend, a quick but important reminder for parents and riders about the safe and lawful operation of electric bikes and electric motorcycles throughout our community.

Electric motorcycles that do not meet Georgia roadway requirements are not legal for operation on public roads, streets, or sidewalks in Alpharetta. If a vehicle functions as a motorcycle, it is regulated as a motorcycle under state law, including licensing, registration, and equipment requirements. Many of the vehicles currently being operated locally do not meet these legal standards.

Law enforcement agencies across Georgia continue to report concerns involving unsafe operation of high-speed electric vehicles by young riders, including excessive speeds, failure to obey traffic laws, and dangerous riding behaviors that place riders and the public at risk.

Rules to remember in Georgia:
• Electric motorcycles and similar motorized vehicles are not permitted on sidewalks or roadways
• Riders operating legally classified e-bikes on roadways must ride as far to the right as safely practicable
• Class 3 e-bikes, capable of speeds up to 28 mph, require riders to be at least 15 years old
• Vehicles exceeding legal e-bike classifications may require registration, licensing, and additional safety compliance under Georgia law

The City’s concern is centered on safety. Many riders, particularly younger operators, may not fully understand the capabilities, legal classifications, or risks associated with these vehicles.

Parents and guardians are encouraged to carefully evaluate any electric vehicle before purchase to ensure it is lawful, appropriate, and safely operated within the community, helping keep Alpharetta’s streets safe, responsible, and welcoming for everyone.

Alright, Alpharetta—let’s clear this up before someone tries to take their golf cart to dinner on Haynes Bridge.

Can you drive a golf cart on public roads? The short answer is no.

Here’s how it works in Alpharetta:

What IS allowed (on roads 35 mph or less):
Low-Speed Vehicles (LSVs) are street-legal and permitted on qualifying roads. These are 4-wheeled electric vehicles that travel 20–25 mph and come equipped with the safety features you’d expect—headlights, turn signals, mirrors, seat belts, a windshield, and more. They’re registered, tagged, and held to the same rules as any other vehicle on the road.

What’s NOT allowed:
Golf carts and Personal Transportation Vehicles (PTVs) are not permitted on public roadways in Alpharetta. While PTVs may have some safety equipment, they’re limited in speed and not designed for road use. Golf carts? Even less so—no lights, no seat belts, and definitely not built for traffic.

So why the restriction? Our roads simply weren’t designed for them. Mixing low-speed, lightly equipped vehicles with regular traffic isn’t a great recipe for safety.

One more thing:
If it’s on the road, it needs to be properly registered. No exceptions.

Drive smart, Alpharetta.
