Wanna take that Segway or hoverboard on BART? Get a permit!
The kids, they are brazen. Good thing BART knows this. The transit agency has instituted a new permit program for passengers who intend to bring their moving toys on the train. Per BART.gov:
BART has a policy governing the use of Electric Personal Assistive Mobility Devices (EPAMDs) within the system. The policy covers all battery-powered, self-balancing, two-wheeled transporters, including the Segway Personal Transporter.
You must apply for and receive a permit in order to bring an EPAMD on BART. To apply for a permit, read the policy governing EPAMDs (.pdf), download the application for a general permit (.pdf) or a permit for persons with disabilities (.pdf) and follow the application instructions.
So, now you know what to do.
MBTA (Subway in Boston Massachusetts) has already banned the use of hoverboard on board and in the stations! It has been a safety concern!
It is what people can get this thing at good hoverboard.
Nice to see one! It must be permitted 🙂
We can replace scooters with hoverboards for kids.
This can be solved soon with real solution with safety and improvement.
When bringing a two-wheeler vehicle on a platform you must ask for permission or carry it in order to carry it, I would love this clause
