If it’s aimed at open flames or specific equipment, riding may still be allowed. Quick conditions (exactly 4 rules): – If e-bikes/lithium batteries are explicitly named,…
TL;DR (Answer First) Usually no. This language typically bans motorized devices but allows wheelchairs and other ADA mobility devices.
