DUI on a Scooter or Bike? Yes, It Happens!
Think a DUI only applies to cars? Think again! As a criminal lawyer, I've seen it: getting arrested for a DUI on a scooter or bike is very real.
Nevada's DUI laws broadly cover operating any vehicle while impaired. This includes electric scooters, bicycles, and even skateboards if you're on a public road or property. In Las Vegas, scooter usage has surged, and with it, related DUIs. Nationally, DUI arrests for micromobility vehicles have increased by over 100% in recent years.
Penalties are severe. A first-time DUI can mean fines, jail time, and license suspension, impacting thousands of individuals annually. Don't underestimate these charges. If you're arrested for a DUI on a non-traditional vehicle, you face serious criminal consequences. Protect your rights immediately.
