The great state of California, for example, recently legalized electric scooters for drivers over the age of 16.

In California, riding electric scooters on the road is legal. Due to similarities in weight and speed, treating electric scooters like bikes makes sense. Unfortunately, the enabling legislation (SB 441) adds extra limitations (minimum age of 16, wear a helmet, etc.). Electric scooters have been ruled permissible on local transit, including BART. Two California cities (Petaluma and Sebastopol) have already passed a new city ordinance making electric scooters equivalent to bicycles. Other cities are encouraged to adopt the same ordinance. In the meantime, you'll likely avoid police interference if you ride safely and courteously. Unfortunately, police have stopped a few electric scooter riders, but if traffic laws are obeyed and common sense used, you will likely be fine riding your electric scooter.

Yes and the details depend on where you live. A pink razor from walmart is a toy and can not be ridden the street. Just in case you have one of those or a sunl they are the same not street legal.
