Online Micromobility Safety Classes in Indiana

Indiana’s growing micromobility scene—stand‑up e‑scooters, e‑bikes, and other small devices—makes it easy to get around, but it also demands solid safety habits. The CourtCure Micromobility Safety course focuses on visibility, roadway awareness, and risk reduction so you ride predictably and share space responsibly. Choose a 2‑hour or 4‑hour option to fit what your referring authority (or your own goals) requires. Because rules in Indiana can vary by city, park system, and campus, this page highlights state‑specific points to check before you enroll or ride. If you were referred by a court, probation, school, or employer, confirm their acceptance and any documentation needs first. Then enroll to complete the same CourtCure course used nationwide—self‑paced, online, and designed to help Indiana riders operate more safely in traffic and on shared paths.

What Indiana calls your device matters. State law defines an “electric foot scooter” as a stand‑up scooter with handlebars and a floorboard, weighing 100 pounds or less and capable of no more than 20 mph on level pavement. This category is distinct from motorcycles, motor‑driven cycles, and “motor vehicles.” ([law.justia.com](https://law.justia.com/codes/indiana/title-9/article-13/chapter-2/section-9-13-2-49-4/)) Rights and duties. An electric foot scooter operator generally has the same rights and responsibilities as a bicyclist on public roads. Scooters must use a white front light and a red rear light or reflector when ridden from one‑half hour after sunset to one‑half hour before sunrise. Subject to any local ordinance, scooters may operate where bicycles may operate, but they may not be ridden on interstate highways. Separately, local governments cannot prohibit scooters (or electric personal assistive mobility devices) on paths set aside exclusively for bicycles. These points are useful to know if your referral followed a sidewalk, lighting, or parking citation. ([law.justia.com](https://law.justia.com/codes/indiana/2024/title-9/article-21/chapter-11/section-9-21-11-13-6/)) Electric bicycles are regulated as bicycles and are not motor vehicles. Indiana’s e‑bike statute specifies that e‑bike operators are subject to bicycle rules and that e‑bikes are not subject to driver licensing, registration, title, or financial‑responsibility requirements. It also limits Class 3 use on certain multi‑use paths, sets a minimum age to operate Class 3, and requires helmets for Class 3 riders under 18. ([law.justia.com](https://law.justia.com/codes/indiana/title-9/article-21/chapter-11/section-9-21-11-13-1/)) State properties and local context. On DNR properties, where you can ride depends on e‑bike class: Classes 1 and 2 are allowed on most hard‑surface trails, with only Class 1 on natural‑surface bike trails; all classes may use park roads. Check posted property rules and ask the property office if unsure. Indiana’s transportation safety plan also highlights micromobility users as “vulnerable road users,” underscoring the importance of visibility and roadway awareness—key topics in this course. ([in.gov](https://www.in.gov/dnr/rules-and-regulations/e-bike-rules/)) Because many riding and parking details are set locally (cities, campuses, park systems), verify local rules where you live or where your incident happened before you ride or submit course documentation.

Indiana does not publish a single, statewide requirement for a micromobility safety course. If a court, probation office, diversion program, school, employer, or insurer asked you to complete training, acceptance is determined by that specific authority. Before you enroll, confirm the required hours (2 or 4), whether an online self-paced course is acceptable, your deadline, and what completion documentation they want (digital vs. printed, any cover sheet, case number, or other identifiers). Local rules can differ by city or campus and may affect what an authority expects after a scooter or e‑bike citation. When in doubt, contact the clerk, probation officer, attorney, or program coordinator that referred you and get their approval on the provider and course length first.
