    You can’t get car insurance on a bike but you can still ride it in the street???

    Of course e-bikes etc shouldn’t be on sidewalks or bike paths, but it should be fine for them to be in the street. That’s absurd.

      E-bikes definitely belong in bike lanes. It’s only electric motorcycles that belong on the road. The difference is size and top speed.

        E-bikes are electric motorcycles, there’s no difference without some top speed enforcement mechanism.
