Potential riders are typically expected to adhere to campus regulations which may include wearing helmets, observing speed limits, parking scooters in designated areas, and yielding to pedestrians.

To determine the exact rules regarding electric scooter usage at RISD, it is advisable to consult the latest version of the campus policy manual or contact the campus security or transportation office directly. These resources will provide the most current information on whether electric scooters are allowed and under what conditions they can be operated on campus grounds. Additionally, students and visitors should keep in mind that local ordinances in Providence also apply while riding electric scooters on public streets and pathways surrounding the campus.
