    I am pro free speech. However. Everybody who complain about ebikes:

    • BANNED from using all delivery services
    • their own personal vehicles have tracking installed above and beyond what is considered normal which will charge them for any violation no matter how small of any law or even local convention. 1" too close to the intersection = dingdingding
    • if caught attempting to use other vehicle to get around this, they will have ankle monitor with GPS, and they have to report anytime they go faster than jogging pace how they did that
    • violations result with both fees and restrictions on driving. Your car is out of service, or it will only work in a small geographical area.
    • repeat violations result in loss of vehicle, license etc. With possibility of ankle.monitor back on for cheaters.

    Using a device to test the top speed of suspect bikes, police said it found that of more than 100 stopped, fewer than a quarter were legally compliant.

    Fuck let us apply this test to cars. If your car can go faster than the lowest posted limit for any jurisdiction (city, state, nation) in which it is located: BUSTED. That shit gets donated to metal recycling. But you are given a very compliant e bike for free.

    All these anti e bike people are racists, I will never be convinced otherwise.
