Electric Bicycle ridership . If you or a family member ride or are considering riding an electric bicycle ( e-bike ) in and around Laguna Niguel , please take the time to learn the rules of the road and follow guidelines and recommendations for riding safely and legally .
By having proactive conversations with your child or loved one , you can help keep them safe as they ride their e-bike throughout the community .
Misuse or unsafe operation of an e-bike may lead to tickets and / or fines regardless of the age of the rider ( s ).
Rules of the Road All cyclists ( e-bike riders included ) are subject to all the same rules of the road as motorists . Cyclists who don ' t follow the rules are subject to ticketing and fines as defined by the California Vehicle Code or Municipal Code . Traffic lights , signs , and signals apply to all road users , including bicycle riders . Cyclists must ride to the right edge of the road as practical . If you ' re riding slower than traffic , ride in the bike lane . You can leave the bike lane to turn left , pass someone , avoid a road hazard or avoid cars turning right . Cyclists can ride no faster than five mph on City sidewalks and must yield the right-of-way to pedestrians . Riding against the flow of traffic and weaving in and out of traffic is prohibited . When a bicycle lane is available , bicyclists are required to use the bike lane unless they are traveling as fast as traffic .
