      Dockless Vehicles: Access for All

      If you haven't noticed already, the District has welcomed dockless vehicles of all types including bikes, scooters, and soon -- mopeds! Riding a bike or a scooter through the city is not only fun, but can save you time and money by avoiding the stress of sitting in traffic and paying for gas and parking. So... leave the keys behind and go dockless DC!

      The District Department of Transportation (DDOT) has made it a priority to provide equal access to dockless vehicles across all wards in the District. To ensure these options are available and affordable, each dockless operater has a Low-Income Customer Plan so their system is accessible to all residents, regardless of income. If approved, program participants can get FREE unlimited 30-minute trips! As of now, seven dockless operators are permitted to operate approximately 5,000 dockless bikes and scooters across the District in 2019.

        • A single person earning less than $24,980/year
