There's a reason taillights are required in the first case. I think cops abusing that is a reason to fix the abuse, not to get rid of taillight requirements.

In this case they usually just run your name and address and see if your story checks out. It's rare to be arrested simply for not having your license on you.

The Effect of New Market-Rate Housing Construction on the Low-Income Housing Market

I think that you should be able to ride a class 1, 2, or 3 ebike without a license. Electric motorcycles are a different thing.

It is not true that there is no regulation; there's a 3-class system for actual e-bikes which is in effect in 36 states. Then there are the electric motorcycles that riders treat like bikes; most of these are easy to distinguish from e-bikes but police just don't bother 🤷♂️. How about fix that?

Maybe it should be illegal to sell electric motorcycles to an unlicensed rider? Maybe we should demand police use their fuckin heads? I don't think we should ban good things because they are confused with bad things by uneducated people.

I'm inclined to agree with you because I ride an ebike myself but I am trying to be open-minded.

Even class 3 can't go 30 mph. Many of the electric motorcycles obviously don't have functional pedals (foot pegs instead). A lack of enforcement against illegal e-bikes is not a problem with legal ebikes!

There are quite a few things in the article which fit in the "also a problem with regular bikes" category; like the downhill crash example they provided.

It was class 2, revealed in like the 5th to last paragraph. Also not clear from the article whether the bike's motor made any difference in her injury.
