Registration helps ensure that your device is UL certified, meaning it has been tested to established fire and electrical safety standards and thereby reduces fire risk. Registration also helps deter theft, as thieves are less likely to target registered devices. It also allows UCPD to help track down your device if it is stolen and increases the likelihood that they can reunite you with your device.
Note: Registration for all electric personal mobility devices will become mandatory campus-wide starting Fall 2026.
Your registration remains valid for the life of your sticker. If your sticker becomes damaged or difficult to read, please contact us to request a replacement.
Please register each device separately.
No, these guidelines do not apply to wheeled devices designed for and used by individuals with mobility-related disabilities.
Registration is currently optional but highly encouraged. Starting Fall 2026, it will be required campus-wide for all electric personal mobility devices.
Starting Fall 2026, only devices that are registered and UL certified may be charged on campus. Please refer to the Charging & Fire Safety section on how to safely charge your device.
Any scooter brought on board should be foldable such that it can be held by the rider and not impede movement of other riders on the bus.
Most BruinBus vehicles have a bike rack on the front of the bus. Any non-folding bike should be placed on the rack.

- Look for the UL Mark (the mark should include a control number and the UL standard, e.g. UL 2722)
- Ask the manufacturer or retailer, or look on their website. Look at product descriptions, user manuals, and/or technical specifications
They are the same. Personal mobility devices may also be referred to as “micromobility devices.” These devices include, but are not limited to, bicycles, scooters, and skateboards. They can be electric or manually powered. This definition does not include wheelchairs or other mobility devices designed for use by an individual with a mobility disability.
Shared Micromobility: UCLA currently has a partnership with Bird and Veo to provide shared electric scooters and electric bikes on campus.
