BMX BIKES AND SKATEBOARDS CAN BE PRETTY POPULAR WITH STUDENTS AND NON-STUDENTS AT U-N-M CAMPUSES. LT TIM STUMP WITH THE UNM POLICE DEPARTMENT SAYS THEY CAN CREATE A PUBLIC SAFETY HAZARD.
HE TELLS US THERE IS NOW AN INTERIM BAN ON HOVERBOARDS IN AN EFFORT TO PREVENT AN EVEN HIGHER RISK TO THE PUBLIC. HE NOTES THE FIRE DANGER AS ONE REASON HOVERBOARDS ARE NOT WANTED ON CAMPUS.
THE BAN ON HOVERBOARDS APPLIES TO ALL UNM CAMPUSES. REPEAT VIOLATORS COULD EVENTUALLY BE BANNED FROM CAMPUS.
