TALLguy18
It is a schwinn S-1000 goes about 18 MPH.
Im 15.
Could you ride it correctly in the bike lane and not get a ticket?
I live in Oceanside CA.
I would like to know the rules of that from someone who is a cop and has delt with this before.
Answer
Yes it is, so long as you are at least 16. Since you are 15, you cannot legally operate it on a public road - including a bike lane.
CVC 406(b) "Motorized Bicycle" states:
A "motorized bicycle" is also a device that has fully operative pedals for propulsion by human power and has an electric motor that meets all of the following requirements:
(1) Has a power output of not more than 1,000 watts.
(2) Is incapable of propelling the device at a speed of more than 20 miles per hour on ground level.
(3) Is incapable of further increasing the speed of the device when human power is used to propel the motorized bicycle faster than 20 miles per hour.
CVC 24016 "Motorized Bicycle Electric Motor: Safety and Equipment Requirements" states:
(a) A motorized bicycle described in subdivision (b) of Section 406 shall meet the following criteria:
(1) Comply with the equipment and manufacturing requirements for bicycles adopted by the Consumer Product Safety Commission (16 C.F.R. 1512.1, et seq.) or the requirements adopted by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (49 C.F.R. 571.1, et seq.) in accordance with the National Traffic and Motor Vehicle Safety Act of 1966 (15 U.S.C. Sec. 1381, et seq.) for motor driven cycles.
(2) Operate in a manner so that the electric motor is disengaged or ceases to function when the brakes are applied, or operate in a manner such that the motor is engaged through a switch or mechanism that, when released, will cause the electric motor to disengage or cease to function.
(b) All of the following apply to a motorized bicycle described in subdivision (b) of Section 406:
(1) No person shall operate a motorized bicycle unless the person is wearing a properly fitted and fastened bicycle helmet that meets the standards described in Section 21212.
(2) A person operating a motorized bicycle is subject to Sections 21200 and 21200.5.
(3) A person operating a motorized bicycle is not subject to the provisions of this code relating to financial responsibility, driver's licenses, registration, and license plate requirements, and a motorized bicycle is not a motor vehicle.
(4) A motorized bicycle shall only be operated by a person 16 years of age or older.
(5) Every manufacturer of a motorized bicycle shall certify that it complies with the equipment and manufacturing requirements for bicycles adopted by the Consumer Product Safety Commission (16 C.F.R. 1512.1, et seq.).
(c) No person shall tamper with or modify a motorized bicycle described in subdivision (b) of Section 406 so as to increase the speed capability of the bicycle.
EDIT..... to "Doodlestuff"... NEVER advise people to ask cops about the law. Cops are a horrible source of legal advice. They believe more myths about the law than tax protestors, and even if they 'do' know the law on something, they are allowed to lie.

is there anything i should know before i buy my first pair of inline skates? know-all sales men intimidate me.
qwerty u
do hard wheels suit a tar road or should i go for soft wheels?
also, is it true that the bigger the wheels the better?
another thing, are inline-skates a one-size-fits-all thing? can a 20 year old, a 17 year old and a 13 year old all use the same pair?
we won't get much time to use them so there's really no point in getting 3 different pairs.
one final question - is a 70-80 USD budget fine?
Answer
You won't get a choice of wheels when you buy the skates. Most makers put wheels on that are suitable for outdoor use.
You say a "tar road". I hope that it means something different to you than to me. To me, that is a gravel road that has had light tar soaked into the surface and would not be very suitable to skating. I hope that you mean a road that has been made of asphalt, which can be really nice for skating.
Yes, bigger wheels roll smoother and easier. I generally don't recommend skates that cannot use 80mm or larger wheels because the smaller wheels are harder to find replacements for and tend to be of lower quality.
More than age is the size of the skate. Best is to have them fit snugly all around the foot (without crushing to toes). Obviously, this doesn't work well for multiple sizes. If the skates are more than a size off, the person with the smallest feet may find that the skates flop around on their feet instead of being stable. Obviously, they can't skate together if they are sharing skates.
$70-80 is on the lower end of good skates. The ones you find for $50 at Target or Walmart tend to be really low end.
For skates in your end look for the big box sporting goods stores like Dick's or Sports Authority. The Rollerblade and K2 brands are the major skate makers in the US. Bladerunner is a lower end brand made by Rollerblade (but they aparently don't want their name on them).
Rember to get at least helmets and wrist guards. A bicycle helmet is good. Some of the new ones are adjustable for head size with a knob at the back.
