Yellow Zones - Slow-Speed Zones:
Areas where the vehicle automatically slows to 15 km/h or less. You'll find these in parks, on trails, and in high-pedestrian areas. You can ride through these zones, just at a slower pace.

Red Zones - No-Ride Restricted Zones:
Areas where riding is not permitted. If you enter a red zone, your vehicle will gradually slow to a stop, the LED will flash red, and an alarm may sound. You'll need to walk the vehicle out of the restricted zone to continue.

Purple Zones - Mandatory Parking Zones:
Areas where parking is mandatory at designated parking zones. If you enter a purple zone, your vehicle will need to be parking at a designated parking zone (marked blue). The trip won’t end unless you’re parked at one of the designated parking zones within the mandatory parking zone.
