The Ocean City Council on Monday passed an emergency ordinance that amends the city code’s definition of “electronic personal assistive mobility devices” (EPAMDs) to explicitly ban the device.
The Maryland Motor Vehicle Administration created the definition for electronically powered vehicles with two wheels that travel up to 15 miles per hour. City officials use that definition in the code to allow Segways on the Boardwalk from 11 a.m. until 2 a.m. on any day from Memorial Day to Labor Day.
That loose definition allowed Hoverboards on the Boardwalk, which the council considers a pedestrian walkway, during those same hours. While the council voted to prohibit the devices in January, visitors were seen riding them over the weekend.
