Good.
E-bikes are too fast, heavy, ridden by idiots in close proximity to pedestrians, and are just as bad as E-scooters at disregarding traffic rules. Riders are way under-equipped to handle a crash at E-bike speeds. These riders are always on pedestrian rights of way even where there are plenty of signs stating electric scooters and bikes are not allowed.
I’m all for alternative transportation that reduces cars on the road, but fuck these things.
