Are pocket bikes legal on sidewalks or bike lanes in san antonio,texas?

Question

So i was on the website where it talks about the laws for pocket bikes on streets or sidewalks. i just need to make sure if i read right. i read that it is illegal to ride on the sidewalk or on the streets and you cannot register the bike to be street legal. i really wanted to get one just to go to my friends house faster but i guess i cant buy one now. I am also referring to one of the larger pocket bikes like the x18 and im 13 if u need that info.

Answer 1

No.

Answer 2

Raymond.

You cant even ride a bicycle on a sidewalk in Texas.

I feel very confident that the San Antonio police department will be lenient on your first citation and probably call your parents.

If you are a regular 13 year old dill weed, you can expect to find new friends at Boys Town once your parents throw you out.

Answer 3

No motor vehicle may be operated on a sidewalk or bicycle lane anywhere in TX.  Sidewalks are for pedestrians only and bike lanes are for non-motorized vehicles only.

Most "pocket bikes" are not street legal (no DOT label) so may not be operated on any public road in most jurisdictions.  They are strictly off-road use only.

Answer 4

No and No you will have to walk it is good exercise for you

Answer 5

It is illegal to ride ANY motor vehicle on a sidewalk
