In Montana, an electric personal assistive mobility device (EPAMD), which includes hoverboards, is defined as a self-balancing device with two wheels that can transport only one person. These devices are equipped with an electric propulsion system that limits their maximum speed to 12 ½ miles per hour.

EPAMDs are allowed to operate on sidewalks, bike paths, and roads and streets with a speed limit of 35 miles per hour or less. However, if there are any official traffic control devices that prohibit EPAMDs, then they are not permitted on sidewalks.
