Maui County, HI Public Conduct: Skateboarding Rules (2026)

150, 'Use of coasters, roller skates and similar devices,' splits the restriction into two parts. Subsection A bars anyone on roller skates, or riding coasters, toy vehicles, skateboards or similar devices, from going onto any roadway, with a single exception: crossing the roadway within a crosswalk. While making that crossing, the section grants the rider all of the rights, and subjects them to all of the duties, that apply to pedestrians, meaning they must follow pedestrian signals and yield rules rather than vehicle traffic rules.

Subsection B addresses sidewalks specifically in business districts: no person on roller skates, coasters, toy vehicles, skateboards or similar devices may go onto a sidewalk located in a business district, a narrower geographic scope than the roadway ban in subsection A, which applies county-wide. 156 in 1980 and traces back to the original 1965 traffic code. Because the section groups skateboards with roller skates, coasters and 'similar devices,' the same roadway and business-district-sidewalk restrictions extend to any comparable wheeled recreational device, not skateboards alone. 150 itself.
