Local laws & rider tips
Riding a scooter around Ocean City
Every town sets its own rules for scooters — which streets are open, speed limits, permits, and who can drive. Here's what we have on file for Ocean City, with the official source linked, plus practical tips from local hosts.
Street-legal rules
Ocean City — what you can and can't do on a cart
The rules
- Public-road use is permitted on streets posted at or below 25 mph.
- Only Low-Speed Vehicles (LSVs) with a plate, seat belts and DOT lighting may operate on public streets.
- Driver must be at least 17 years old and hold a valid state driver's license.
- Only titled, registered and insured low-speed vehicles (LSVs) may use Ocean City streets, on roads posted 25 mph or less, with a valid driver's license. The city regulates LSV rentals under Ordinance 87-17:5-19; plain golf carts are not street-legal.
- Every passenger must be in a designated seat with a functioning seat belt where required. No riding on laps, bumpers, or cargo beds.
- No riding under the influence. The same DUI rules that apply to cars apply to golf carts.
- Yield to pedestrians and bicycles. Use headlights and taillights whenever visibility is reduced.
Local tips
- Only registered, insured low-speed vehicles may use public roads — confirm allowed streets with your host before riding.
- Plan to ride on the island: the bridges off Ocean City carry faster traffic than low-speed vehicles may use.
- Give your host your rental address at checkout so the cart is dropped where you are staying.
