Bill > A09568

This bill requires electric scooter service platforms, defined as entities that own or control more than two electric scooters and make them available to the public through a digital network (an app or similar technology for unlocking and operating scooters), to maintain liability insurance. This insurance must cover the operator from the moment they access a scooter via the digital network until the end of their trip, providing at least $25,000 per accident for bodily injury, death, or property damage, and this coverage is primary. The bill also mandates that these platforms must be able to provide proof of this insurance upon request by law enforcement and to individuals who have suffered injury or property damage due to the scooter's operation.
