Tulsa permits shared electric scooter operators downtown under city-issued licenses, with parking corral requirements, 15 mph speed governors, and prohibition of riding on most downtown sidewalks under Title 39.
Following pilot programs, Tulsa adopted shared mobility rules requiring operators to obtain a city license, pay per-device fees, and deploy scooters within designated downtown service zones. Riders must be 18 or older, may not ride on sidewalks within the inner dispersal loop, and must park scooters at marked corrals or upright on sidewalk furniture zones avoiding pedestrian paths. Speed governors limit devices to 15 mph, with slow zones at lower speeds near the BOK Center and Greenwood district.
Improper parking by users may trigger 25-dollar fines from operators. Riding on prohibited sidewalks is a Title 39 infraction with fines up to 200 dollars.
