Game changer: Scoots can now park at any legal curb & at meters at no extra cost!

June 21st, 2017

The SFMTA has approved a groundbreaking pilot program that gives San Franciscans better access to parking for shared electric mopeds.

Scoots can now park in the busiest parts of The City (FiDi and SOMA!) where there was previously limited parking.

This pilot project creates a new permit sticker that allows Scoot to prepay for your right to:

Park on the line between metered car spaces without feeding the meter!

Make sure to park ON the white divider line between car spots

No need to pay either of the meters

Make sure the metered space is within a blue zone

Park at motorcycle meters without feeding the meter!

Park perfectly aligned in one motorcycle spot

Be respectful of vehicles on either side

Make sure the metered space is within a blue zone

At any legal spot in residential zones!

Park at any legal curb in RPP neighborhoods within our blue zones

Make sure to double check for street cleaning and construction signs

Never block driveways or other vehicles

Try not to park in spots that will impede cars from parking if there is a scoot sized spot nearby

The SFMTA has demonstrated their leadership in supporting affordable electric transportation, reducing air pollution, decreasing traffic, and providing more parking for people who need cars in San Francisco.

Thank you to everyone who helped pass this pilot program. We couldn’t have done it without you. Now go scoot somewhere new!
