Electric scooters, as a popular form of micro-mobility, are generally permitted on the University of Washington campus. However, users must comply with the university's policies and regulations regarding their safe and proper use. The University of Washington emphasizes safety and consideration for pedestrians when operating any form of shared or personal mobility devices, including electric scooters.

To ensure the safety of all campus community members, electric scooter riders are advised to follow the university's guidelines, which typically include wearing helmets, yielding to pedestrians, and using designated bike lanes or pathways when available. Riding on sidewalks may be restricted or prohibited to prevent potential conflicts with pedestrians.

Parking of electric scooters must be done in a manner that does not obstruct pedestrian traffic, accessibility ramps, or building entrances and exits. The university usually provides designated parking areas for shared mobility devices to maintain an organized and accessible campus environment.

As regulations regarding the use of electric scooters may be subject to change, individuals are encouraged to consult the University of Washington's Transportation Services for the most current policies and available resources relating to electric scooter use on campus. This will ensure they remain compliant with any updates or changes to campus regulations.
