The City of Wichita is considering lifting the curfew for Veo Ride scooters. Currently, they shut off at 9 p.m. or dusk. “I normally start using them around six,” said Zidane Forbes, who uses the scooters. Forbes typically rides around on the scooters at night in Wichita. So when he heard they could soon be used after 9, he’s on board. “Most of the time, that’s when people actually want to use them. Like during the that’s a good idea. But later at night, you want to use them, ride around just have a little bit of fun,” said Forbes. The City of Wichita is considering lifting that 9 p.m. curfew that’s been in place since the scooters first came to the Air Capital in 2019. Veo Ride asked for the curfew to be lifted because more people seem to ride after 9. “A lot of your ridership is in the evening. We see people get on the scooters and have to get off at roughly at dusk or 9 pm, asked us to look into any revisions that we could make,” said Penny Feist, Interim Director of Wichita Transit. If the curfew for Veo Ride is lifted, every scooter is required to have headlights and reflectors.
