I've got an axe to grind.
I can appreciate the convenience of the e-bike movement and I respect the fact that people need an easy, affordable way to commute to and from work, appointments, etc. That said, these ************* like to just rip around, ignore all rules of the road and they're virtually anonymous while doing it because they are not required to register, plate, or be licensed in any way. The number of times I've nearly struck one, while driving the speed limit within my own damn lane is insane.
In addition, when they're not using the roads however they see fit they rip down the sidewalks presenting immediate danger to pedestrians everywhere they ride. I watched some ********* on an Emmo, with his phone in his hand nearly smoke a woman with stroller.
I hope e-bikes, and to some degree cyclists are going to be held to the same standard motor vehicles are expected to adhere to in the future, or else we'll continue to spiral downward into chaos.
....end rant.
