上海市正计划采取措施，严禁12岁以下孩子骑行共享单车。

The traffic safety law in China stipulates that a person must be 12 years or older to ride a bicycle or tricycle on public roads.

After meeting with education and public security authorities in Shanghai, the ride-share firms have pledged to update their registration procedures, post warnings on the bicycles for children, and also avoid siting bicycles near schools or the Children's Palace.
