In the Illinois Vehicle Code: establishes titling and registration requirements and exemptions for electric-powered motor driven cycles or gas-powered bicycles; with regard to toy vehicles, provides that the parent of any child and the guardian of any ward shall not authorize or knowingly permit any such child or ward that is operating a toy vehicle to violate any of the provisions of the Code; removes language providing that motor driven cycles shall not be operated upon public highways divided by a grass or concrete median; allows park districts, forest preserve districts, conservation districts, and transit districts to regulate the use of toy vehicles, electric micromobility devices, and low-speed electric bicycles by ordinance or resolution; provides that the Bicycle Article of the Rules of the Road Chapter applies to adaptive electric bicycles when operated by a person with a mobility disability; with regard to low-speed gas bicycles, prohibits a low-speed gas bicycle that is manufactured to accommodate passengers from being operated by a person under the age of 18 with a passenger unless the passenger is a sibling, stepsibling, child, or stepchild of the operator and allows a person to operate a low-speed gas bicycle upon any highway, street, or roadway authorized for use by bicycles, unless it is a bicycle path a State agency has prohibited the use of low-speed gas bicycles upon; and makes other changes. Amends the Micromobility Fire Safety Act. Provides that "personal e-mobility device" includes an electric micromobility device (rather than a low-speed electric scooter).
