The Urban Review blog notes that Warrenton has recently banned motorized bicycles (mo-peds) on all city streets. Quoting the November 9th Post-Dispatch:
The Warrenton Board of Aldermen at its Tuesday, Nov. 2 meeting approved an ordinance that prohibits the use of motorized scooters in the city of Warrenton. Other than disabled persons, residents cannot use motorized bicycles or scooters on streets, highways, roadways, sidewalks or any other property in the city. The new ordinance describes a motorized scooter as "any two, three (or) four wheeled device having handlebars that are attached to a foot board, which is designed to be either stood upon by the operator or equipped with a seat, and is powered by a motor that is capable of propelling the device with or without human propulsion. This may be a response to a recent great increase in sales of small scooters ("pocket bikes") mostly intended for children's use, and media attention to this trend. More details about the Warrenton ban, on Urban Review.
