Your Kid Got an E-Bike. Did They Get the Training?
The online safety course that teaches teens to ride safe and legal in California, and shows parents exactly what they're responsible for.

What California parents can be liable for, per incident, when a minor's willful misconduct causes harm (Civil Code 1714.1)
Police across Sacramento, Placer and El Dorado counties have moved from warnings to tickets. Most kids aren't trying to break the rules. Nobody ever taught them the rules. RideReady fixes that in a few short sessions.
Education, Not Punishment.
The E-Bike Safety Institute exists to save lives. Every rider who knows the rules makes the road safer for every kid who rides right. RideReady gives your teen the skills and the confidence, and gives you peace of mind.

Start RideReady Basics – $37Proof They're Trained
When your rider passes, they get a printable certificate, a wallet card to laminate, and a phone version, each with a unique card number and QR code to our verification page.
The Rider Training Card shows completion of a private safety course. It does not replace any license or permit and does not waive any citation.
Parents Get Their Own Toolkit
Parent Debrief Report
When your teen finishes, you get a summary of what they learned plus a 10-question Ride-Along Check to make sure it stuck.

Rule broken? Assign a Reset. Your teen completes a focused lesson and re-signs the family agreement before riding again.
