Can you use mini bikes or the baja sports doodlebug in the bike lanes like a scooter.?

Posted in sports scooters  by admin on October 12th, 2009

I want to know if you can use mini dirt bike or a mini bike like the Baja doodlebug in the bike lanes like you would use in a stand up gas scooter? Whats so different about the mini bike and gas scooters like goped? So do the rules apply to mini bikes as they would to gas scooters, or you can't use them on public streets?

They are not road legal for several reasons, mainly safety concerns to do with size, power, lighting and brakes. and the top speed is not fast either.
