The cops don’t either. The sheriffs I’ve seen around here in Orange County are the most chill about it when I’m pacing 30+ next to them.
There is only 1 city (Aliso Viejo) where the cops from that city keeps telling me to ride it on the sidewalk instead of the bike lane (???) I tried to explain to them what the law says, and one time they got mad and went “do you want to argue with me?” I decided to just cut my losses and ride on the sidewalk since I don’t live there anyway. This has happened 3x already, only with motorcycle cops in that city.
I found it ironic that they’re forcing an electric vehicle on the sidewalk with pedestrians, especially after they chase me down as I’m going quite fast, they never had a problem with my speed, somehow in their mind it’s perfectly reasonable to blast down the sidewalk like a slalom course. I have my fun doing it anyway.

Does that mean I can ride my board on the street at speeds up to the speed limits posted for motor vehicles? (not a highway, not a bikeway, just tryna Seuss this out of your view of our legislation)

no because under the vehicle code all streets are considered “highways”
^ “Highway includes street.”

I always imagine how this has played out on the past. I feel like it’s just jealousy
A person on foot looks at the biker and says, cheater. Biker pulls up next to a car, thinks what a fucking cheater.

No, one of them clearly tell me “you cannot operate motorized vehicles in the bike lane, and that is a motorized vehicle, get on the sidewalk”. I’m like, first of all california law says… guy goes, oh, you want to argue with me? I’m like okay nevermind I’ll get on the sidewalk.

yea it was best not to argue, but your vehicle has the classification of “electrically motorized board” which allows it to use bike paths and lanes etc

Yeah I was aware of that statute, but all the motorcycle cops in that particular city is for some reason mis-informed of it, or has some grudge against it and just want to be an ass about it.
I had nothing to gain from arguing about it cept maybe a timeout at the police station and wasting my time in court, so just follow their advise and terrorize the pedestrians instead.
