Venice Beach Crackdown: Police Clamp Down on Illegal Biking on the Boardwalk

On Friday, August 16, 2024, Los Angeles Police Officers were stationed along the Venice Beach Boardwalk as part of a newly formed task force aimed at educating the public and enforcing the no biking rule on the boardwalk. The initiative comes in response to a recent severe electric bike accident that left a child unconscious after being struck by a youth rider. Around a dozen LAPD officers, including two sergeants, were strategically positioned across the boardwalk to maximize visibility and ensure compliance. The task force's primary focus was on preventing accidents and promoting safety by redirecting cyclists and pedicab operators to the designated bike path. Speaking to Santa Monica Closeup during the enforcement, LAPD Sergeant Decoite explained, "We're out here today doing some education to keep bikes and pedicabs off the boardwalk for safety reasons. It's all about community safety." He further added, "We're redirecting all bicycles and similar vehicles onto the bike path where they belong. We're focusing on education today, with the hope that we can limit citations and just inform the public." The enforcement aligns with Los Angeles Municipal Code section 63.44 B16, which states, “No person shall drive or ride any cycle or vehicle, whether powered by a motor or human power, except on paths, roads or drives designed and provided for such purposes.
