Law enforcement and families at a VoltVerified eBike training event
Built for real decisions

Families are being asked to figure out a lot.

Families are making decisions about devices that have changed quickly. VoltVerified gives young riders real training and gives parents better information to work with.

01 What kind of eBike is appropriate?
02 Is a rider ready to ride independently?
03 What skills should come before traffic?

The goal is not to make those decisions for families. It is to help them make informed ones.

What we are working for

The best crash is the one that never happens.

How we work

The right people around riders and families.

VoltVerified works with law enforcement agencies, schools, health professionals, district attorneys and other community partners because each sees a different part of eBike safety.

Bringing those perspectives together helps shape better rider training, better information for parents and better support for young people.
