Most countries have a ~10% tolerance anyway so even legal e-bikes are probably going 27/28. And there’s quite a lot of illegal ones.
And there’s a differenc between young+fit people going 25+ km/h, and 70+ people going that fast. Even a relatively healthy old person has generally worse reflexes and eyesight than a young person, and lots of old people are quite unhealthy.
People like you have existed in NL for decades, it’s clearly e-bikes that inspired this speed limit experiment.
E-bikes already aren’t allowed to go faster than 25km/h.
They are allowed. They just may not provide electric assistance above 25. But you can drive them 30 on muscle power perfectly legally
Sure but for most e-bikes it’s impractical to so so since they tend to be quite a bit heavier to pedal at that point than a regular bike.
Yes comrade chairman O7
