Barrington police are advising residents to follow the rules when using an e-bike.
Those under the age of 16 are not allowed to operate motorized electric bikes.
Also, electric bikes with motors more powerful than 750 watts that can reach speeds over 28 miles per hour are considered recreational vehicles and cannot be driven on public roads.
