Electric cars in California may be owned by non disabled buyers
Electric cars are defined as motorcycles and must be registered with a license, but no disability is required to own one. Disabled drivers may have an “invalid tricycle” exempt from registration, yet still need a special license at no charge. Sidewalk driving is banned by Vehicle Code 21663 and enforcement varies by city, with Paramount stricter than Long Beach where cars are popular and viewed as less hazard on sidewalks. Dealers are listed in the Yellow Pages under Electric Cars Automobile.
