Electric Scooters in FW

[fsufandis]

I've seen these small electric scooters with the seat around town and I was wondering if they would be allowed in and around the campground?

Looks like a nice way of getting around the camp and an alternative to the golf carts.

Can you rent them anywhere near WDW?

I know that WDW recently banned the use of the Segway scooters.

I am talking about what my kids call a "Go-Ped" not an electric wheelchair or "jazzy".

I am asking about an electric "go-ped"

Motorized 2 wheel transportation, i.e. mopeds, scooters and the like are prohibited.

In the Fort Wilderness Gazette (the paper they give you at check in) it states: "Motorbikes or Cycles: No two-wheeled motorized vehicles are allowed in Fort Wilderness."

Check out my FW web page below, I cover most of the rules.

Happy camping!

The last gazette I got (November 2003) stated that electric scooters were allowed on the bicycle paths. There were a lot of them around. That being said, I would like to see them regulated like the golf carts are, since a lot of pretty young kids were riding them pretty recklessly. I think I'll stick to my bike.::MickeyMo

The electric ones are allowed now, it's the gas powered ones they prohibit.

We were there 13-19th and they were EVERYWHERE and ALL ages were on them. The gazette we had stated they were allowed. My son was very mad at me, I thought they were prohibited so he didn't bring his. :mad:

This was our first stay at FW and we absolutely loved it !! The kids did not want to leave for the parks, they had a better time staying there all day.

Gas and electric scooters were very popular there 2 weeks ago. A lot of kids on them and I didn't see one instance of kids being out of control and dangerous.
