Safety First

The safety of riders and members of the community is our top priority here at SLY-DE. Keep these things in mind next time you ride.

Where to Ride

Care for pedestrians. No riding on sidewalks unless local law requires or permits — it endangers members of our community who want to walk freely. We’re all in this together, so let’s be good neighbors and look out for one another.

Ride in bike lanes or close to the right curb.

Where to Park

    • Park SLY-DE out of the public right of way — keeping walkways, driveways, access ramps, and fire hydrants clear.
    • Park SLY-DE close to the curb, facing the street near designated bike or scooter parking areas, trees, or street signs.
    • Make sure your kickstand is securely in the down position so that the SLY-DE stays upright.
  • Avoid uneven surfaces like grass, gravel, rocks, or inclines.

Wear a Helmet

SLY-DE offers free helmets to all active riders. Just cover shipping. You can request your helmet in the Safety section in the SLY-DE app.
