Shared mopeds in Los Angeles are moving faster and posing greater risks than scooters, but California's insurance rules have not yet adapted, leaving significant liability gaps for riders and third parties.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Micromobility.

You face an insurance blind spot in LA’s growing moped market where liability is often uncovered. Lock in clear coverage for your riders now or prepare for costly legal exposure and lost trust.
