The city wants to make sure people know how and where to ride, along with the specific safety measures for scooters.

The e-scooters are part of a one-year pilot program in Fort Collins before permanent changes are made to city ordinances.

Scooters were recently moved to bike lanes and driving lanes in Denver after concerns of pedestrian safety.
