Keating Law clients Joseph and Marie were the focus of a Chicago Sun-Times front page article on the risks riders of e-scooters in Chicago face. One of the risks that e-scooter riders face is collisions with distracted and entitled drivers of motor vehicles who do not recognize the increasing presence of e-scooters on the city’s roadways. Under the Chicago Municipal Code, e-scooter riders are entitled to the same rights and responsibilities as bicyclists under Chicago law. 


Keating Law client, Marie, provided video of one of her crashes to the Chicago Sun-Times and you can watch the video here. 

Like bicyclists, e-scooter riders are vulnerable users of the roadway and the risk of injury is high. Keating Law founder Mike Keating was quoted in the article on his firm’s representation of e-scooter riders. 

Keating Law focuses part of its practice on the representation of vulnerable users of our roadways like pedestrians, bicyclists and, increasingly, e-scooter riders. (Office) or 312-208-7702 (Nights/Weekends).
