Scooter 101
There are three ways to unlock a scooter:
- Scan the QR code between the handlebars.
- Enter the ID located by the front wheel.
- Use a key fob to unlock scooters at Divvy stations.
Then, put the kickstand up and kick off with your right or left foot. Whatever scoots your fancy. Turn the throttle to adjust your speed.
Rules to ride by
Start slow
The max speed for your first ride is 10 MPH. After that, you can go up to 15 MPH.
Avoid sidewalks
Ride on the street or in bike lanes. We recommend always wearing a helmet, braking gradually, and being alert in traffic.
One person per scooter
Scootering is fun with friends—just make sure everyone rides their own scooter.
Scooter riders must be 16+ years or older.
How to park
Park for free at Divvy stations
Insert the front of the scooter into the dock. Wait for the green light.
At Divvy e-stations, lock your scooter to the rack with the cable.
