Imagine if we treated cars the way we're treating e-bikes in the US?

Okay, since a few of you have been speeding, and some people have died, Now every car is limited to a 4 cylinder engine with no more than 50hp, And all cars must be governed to no more than 35mph. We're also going to ban cars from any road where the speed limit is 25 or under.

That's literally what's going on right now with e-bikes. Laws are being written that are so restrictive and stupid in some places that they basically render e-bikes e-waste. And that's on purpose. The idea being to get people to stop riding them and to force them back into cars. Because that's all our lawmakers care at all about here.

It's so backwards it drives me nuts!
