Lmao. 4000 people died last year in car accidents in California alone. How about you do something about that or is that too much work? Nah, let's restrain bicyclists though. That will make law enforcement look like they do something. Ridiculous and pathetic as always.
And you have 31,100,000 cars registered in the state of California. I see cyclists run stop signs like no tomorrow because “it’s hard to regain momentum after they stop.” Well in my 1990 car with a manual transmission, guess what, it wears my clutch out every time I have to accelerate from a dead stop. I have no problem with cyclists that don’t impede traffic and follow the rules of the road. Too bad there are realistically few that do so.
@Wildbillcooper they are actually making it a law in certain counties called the Idaho stop that allows cyclists to treat stop signs as yield signs in certain conditions so....
The cops are riding ebikes. This is all about the revenue sharing contract between Uber / Lyft and the City Of Coronado. These bikes have a 50 mile range, which is a day long island exploration in which you don't have to park blocks away from that boutique restaurant or gift shop for a $20 parking fee. Instead, Coronado wants you to park your car and walk or hail a Lyft or Uber and pay a $30 fare and mandatory tip to ride 2 miles at a time in your exploration.
@@cycologist7069That's so pathetic, I get cut off and blown of the road by dbags on regular bikes all the time and rarely by ebikes. Why not outlaw riding like a dik head regardless of the type of bike instead.
This is the Coronado city council making good on their backroom revenue sharing on the licensure of Lyft and Uber ride share services. These eBike rentals can be rented and ridden for a full day at less than a single point to point ride share fare.
The problem isn't that the kids have motors on their bikes, it's the fact that the roads are built to be actively hostile to anyone not wrapped in heavy armor. This is not due to a fundamental law of nature. it's a deliberate decision by politicians to prioritize the happiness of automobiles over the lives of human beings. They could just as easily rebuild the roads to separate the cars from the bicycles and make the city safer for everyone.

the kids do not obey traffic rule's, lanes , bike path rules and signs or even common road courtesy, i say regulate the hell out of underage ebike use.. (daily walker in Encinitas)
@@DiogenesOfCa But it's so much safer to drive like that inside a car than outside on a bicycle. For the driver, anyway. A car-centric philosophy doesn't ask what's safer for the people outside the car.
So first, the government encourages people to use Ebikes for daily commuting because its better for the environment and cheaper. Now that its being widely accepted and used, they want to closely regulate it and restrict them from being easily used for the very thing they were intended to be used for. Next, they will find a way to tax people on ebikes to make up for the loss of taxes made from the fuel tax. Soon we will be required to put plates on them and get an operators license for no other real reason aside from the money the government can make by regulating them. Its all about how much money they can make through regulations and on the other end by issuing tickets to people not following regulations so the police departments can also make money. ITS ALL ABOUT MONEY AND NOTHING ELSE!
@cycologist7069 it depends on the area and traffic. In many places, the roads are far too narrow to ride on safely so yes I absolutely say people can ride them on sidewalks. People on ebikes do have just as much right to not be run over by a car as a pedestrian does.
How funny! I was driving my car at 30 miles per hour and a platoon of about 10 guys on road racing bikes passed me as if I was walking. They hate people on e-bikes, they call us names and bully us all the time. This new law is unfair and discriminatory! Thousands of seniors use them as their primary method of transportation!
This is what I don't get. It shouldn't matter if the bike is propelled by your legs or a motor. You're either riding like an ahole or you're not. The power source isn't really the problem
Those groups of ten $5,000.00 kevlar guys with their spandex racing suits who go whizzing buy people are a concern for me. You know the guys who dont want to slow down because it's to hard to get back up to speed.
Haven't had a single negative interaction with someone on an ebike. I've never had a positive interaction with a spandex bro. Especially on my motorcycle.
Now lets monitor how many ebike riders are injured or killed do to being forced to ride in the street. How about we make more bike lanes before passing these laws.
But you can steal $1,000 in merchandise and potentially harm Home Depot employees with with no consequences? We really are ruing life for responsible people 😢.
I think eBike-only bans just make it more difficult for unfit people to start exercising. If the concern is safety, impose a speed limit instead. Also, manual bike riders are way more likely to run stop signs and refuse to slow down because it’s such a hassle to get going again. eBikes (used responsibly) make it physically easier to follow traffic laws.
We need it to get places,job, delivery job everybody don't have car or don't want to drive or savings on gas we all got to be cautious and safe and we should wear helmets don't ban it help us to be on time and especially for Sundays some people don't have buses that run in the area people don't want to have to keep paying for a share rides and etc I hope they fix it
The new law should be NOT to allow KIDS to ride E-Bikes unless accompanied by PARENTS or Guardian. ADULTS are mature. Adults on e-bikes have a mature understanding to not ride through crowds, on crowded boardwalks, congested sidewalks at high speeds, etc. Kids abuse everything because they see everything as fun. I don't blame them. At 12 years old they don't have the proper brain capacity to take knowledge and responsible actions seriously.
And that's the problem right there. We judge EVERYBODY on ebikes by the standard of what CHILDREN do, who shouldn't even be GIVEN one of these over a standard pedal bike in the first place. They can't buy an ebike for themselves, so how are they getting them? Negligent parents. EVERY SINGLE argument against ebikes is an appeal to either "the children" or the idea that the people who ride them are TOO STUPID to ride them carefully and responsibly. Its extremely condescending. AND it's so incredibly shortsighted and illogical, because without ebikes, you're forcing those SAME PEOPLE who you assume ARE too stupid to operate an ebike safely and responsibly INTO A CAR THAT CAN CAUSE INFINITELY MORE DAMAGE AND DESTRUCTION WHEN DRIVEN IRRESPONSIBLY.
Federal and local governments don't want us to use cheap transportation. It's all a bs law that's a part of something bigger. If everyone owned an e bike the car car market would crumble 🍪
Get them off the bike paths and bike lanes, very dangerous for regular bicyclists like me, lazy people can become a liability for regular old-school bicyclists like me. A bicycle with a motor, is like a beer without the alcohol 😵💫🤣💩😷🙊🐒
Tons of people use them to commute every day, get groceries, etc. I'm sorry that I don't feel like peddling myself uphill for an hour before I go to a physically demanding job. What a joke. Also, is it really safer for an ebike that goes 25 mph to be in a lane with cars that are driving 50? I highly doubt that.
@Jacobell97 Get your own ebike lanes for lazy bicyclists, too dangerous for regular bicyclists, specially, Senior Citizens like me, 74, and still pedaling, pedaling since 2, tricycle.
It was eventually going to happen because crap parents lets their kids fly down the streets on those bikes with absolutely no protection. It's really bad out here in Ventura county with all the knuckle head kids. I do wish responsible people were not affected by this.
@@carl_thunder It IS. We have called the city many times and requested help but nothing is done. Nothing. I’m fully disabled due to a spine injury and having a child racing toward me at high speed on the sidewalk is frightening. If they hit me and I fall there is a chance that my spine could fracture and be much worse. Why don’t parents school their children on proper behavior and respect? Better yet, why do they buy their kids a e-bike and then allow them to just ride like Evel Knievel?
@@yobringitondown5565 Sorry to hear about your spine injury. I certainly wish you the best. As for the parents, they want their kids of out of the house. They simply just don't care. I'm very close friends with an officer and he said they refuse to go after them because chasing after them has resulted in the death of a kid who crashed into a wall running from the police. A law was needed at this point to put this nonsense to bed.
It help us to get to places,work, delivery job some can't get car or don't want cars or savings on gas or scare after being in a car accident or people drive crazy and safety is very important roll for cars, bikes, people and animals we have to share sidewalks in streets and be mindful when you riding e-bikes and be cautious and don't ban the law of not being able to ride a e-bike
The cops won’t even enforce this. They only enforce it if you’re being dumb which includes high speeds going the wrong direction, high speed on sidewalk or just being sassy with them if they stop you to ask you a few things that’s when theyll enforce
It is has been illegal to ride bicycles on public sidewalks for many decades (statewide we believe) but we see them daily in San Diego because there is no enforcement in Todd Gloria’s administration.
Another example of government intrusion who makes these ordinances. Are they doing it to make money for cities? I don't need government to keep me safe for one thing and then violating me for other issues. We need less government in our business. What next?

its about time, these are "motor cycles" no licenses, adequate lights, underage, no rules..back in the day mini bikes were confiscated by cops if ridden on roads without a license plate and driver's license. Now adays the kids run things and their parents are their "friends":
Yeah, this is backlash from pedestrians and car drivers. They were forced to tolerate bicycles to a certain point, but there are too many Ebikes, in their opinion, so they want to ban them. What we need to do is start restricting the number of cars, especially oversized cars and trucks, on the roads. Or ban them, starting in cities. The problem is those people will cry foul in large numbers. They think it is their God-given right to drive huge gas-guzzling machines wherever they want. Singapore prevented too much traffic on their island when they stopped issuing license plates. If you want to drive a car there, you must pay $100k or more to buy a license plate from an existing driver. But there is plenty of other transport options. Car driving is really an unnecessary luxury in urban areas.
I think it's the car driver that should be fined ,we all about saving our planet but when it comes to bike riding in the US it gets a back seat makes no sense
To some of you regular bicyclists who are complaining about e-bikes and e-bikers, and you think that you are superior to and more fit than e-bikers, you are not well-educated or well-informed about the backgrounds of many e-bikers who rode non-electric assisted bikes for decades.
Any bike don't belong on sidewalks. Especially where there are many pedestrians. They have the same rights as cars on the streets and that's where they belong not on sidewalks. The only time a bike should be on the sidewalk is when it's walked. For the safety of the rider. There are exempt such as wheel chair type of scooters . 73
Car's have a safe path (road way) cyclists have a safe path (bike path) pedestrians have a save path (sidewalks) then make some room and create an electric path only. These are only getting more and more popular, so eventually it's going to need to be done. Having it be a gray area where some can and some can't is absurd and will only confuse the daft.
Stupidest thing ive ever seen. They have nothing better to do and come up with stupid rules to extract money. We need to boot them this is a waste of our tax payer money.
I rather use the e scooter then an e bike anyway the sole problem with anyone using them is they go overboard riding them by increasing the speed to the max its careless if they are in a rush they should get out sooner or something but if its being used for commuting I don't see the need to use them for speeding some people are just not meant to be responsible riding stuff they are just going to ruin it for the rest and even more strict laws will be place to the point people will just walk or use other mode of transportation, all it takes is one person to ruin it for the rest
What the unenlightened half wits in the comments need to realize is that ebikes are dangerous to their riders and others. Regulation is a GOOD thing. It's a safety issue. If your son or daughter was struck by an ebike rider, suddenly you'd grasp the rationality behind the enforcement. Until then...
Its the individuals the freaks that are causing the problems so now the people that are actually following, the rules won’t get to ride in a certain area because of pathetic city dumb rules
Ebikes on CITY STREETS, should be in the car lanes with other motorized vehicles, not in the cycling lanes, they are not "bicycles," they are motor cycles with pedals! end of story!
The people who are riding these e-bikes recklessly are to blame which is why laws like these are created. Unfortunately, these laws also hurt safe riders. While some here complains about this law, you also have to consider why is this law being implemented at the first place.
I rarely have a problem with someone on an ebike, but have an issue with regular bikes all the time. Why aren't they trying to over regulate regularl bikes which are a much bigger problem. The answer, they are laying the ground work for eventual licensing, taxing, and insurance. It's all about lining the pockets of those in charge
Banning kids under 12 from riding bicycles is unconstitutional. Class 1 & 2 eBikes are bicycles under Federal Regulations so CA law is trumped by Federal Law for all states.
There is no law prohibiting children under 12 from riding bicycles. But children under 12 shouldn't be riding e bikes on the roadways with traffic. And it's illegal for kids under 18 to ride regular bikes on the road without a helmet. We don't need kids on the road, especially unsupervised. A child endangerment law will be next. Parents don't seem to care about their kids these days like they used to.
Why are bike shops still making big money selling, and people keep buying when everyday the places these ebikes can go gets smaller and smaller? These bikes are too dangerous to be in the hands of kids as young as elementary school in the first place. Too dangerous to be on the streets with drivers who don't respect any road laws. Too dangerous to share the sidewalks with pedestrians. Too dangerous for park trails & beach access because riders think trails are some kind of motorcross. E-bike riders have brought all this upon themselves. Maybe just plain regular exercise on a normal bike will come back in style.
Yup the law is just trying to find a way to tax us it's not about safety. They'll start off that way. Then it'll be well you need this and that to ride.
Nope. There are 100 times more issues with people on regular bikes, but they are allowed to weave in and out of traffic, blow through red lights, and cut people off, but it's ok because the bike is powered by their legs and not a motor.
Just because it has pedals it's still a motor bike. If you're riding it in traffic, they should have the same laws as motorcycles like wearing a helmet and using turn signals, brake light, taillight, and a headlight that's on during the day too. They should also have insurance in case you hit someone because they can't hear you coming and they sue you. As they start causing more accidents the laws will change again. If some fool is riding one on the sidewalk, I'm not moving out of their way, they'll have to go off the sidewalk to go around me or hit me then I'll sue them. Some counties won't even let you ride a bicycle on the sidewalk.
Lmao. 4000 people died last year in car accidents in California alone. How about you do something about that or is that too much work?

Any bike don't belong on sidewalks. Especially where there are many pedestrians. They have the same rights as cars on the streets and that's where they belong not on sidewalks. The only time a bike should be on the sidewalk is when it's walked. For the safety of the rider. There are exempt such as wheel chair type of scooters . 73
Finally the kids can't Rude those $tipid Surron EBike.
They like go Wheely on them like Riding like Maniac
More laws great just what we need
The stupidity of a few, F's it up for all.
Indeed
Car's have a safe path (road way) cyclists have a safe path (bike path) pedestrians have a save path (sidewalks) then make some room and create an electric path only. These are only getting more and more popular, so eventually it's going to need to be done. Having it be a gray area where some can and some can't is absurd and will only confuse the daft.
Yep.
Stupidest thing ive ever seen. They have nothing better to do and come up with stupid rules to extract money. We need to boot them this is a waste of our tax payer money.
Bout time! These are mopeds by another name and need to be registered and insured as such.
Soooo why even have the BIKE LANE no one uses a regular bike now
I rather use the e scooter then an e bike anyway the sole problem with anyone using them is they go overboard riding them by increasing the speed to the max its careless if they are in a rush they should get out sooner or something but if its being used for commuting I don't see the need to use them for speeding some people are just not meant to be responsible riding stuff they are just going to ruin it for the rest and even more strict laws will be place to the point people will just walk or use other mode of transportation, all it takes is one person to ruin it for the rest
This law being in place. Maybe walking all the time. was much easier.💯
Amen!
Kids are buying sur rons doing 40+ if there riding a normal ebike that does 20mph. Then its no difference then a reg bike.
My bicycle does 21 without the electric motor, what are they gonna do about that?
So they're putting the e-bike riders in harm's Way in the name of safety. Hmm
25$ whoa go easy that's a little harsh I guess it is to deter offenders which it will that's almost two hours work for a McDonald's worker to pay
What the unenlightened half wits in the comments need to realize is that ebikes are dangerous to their riders and others. Regulation is a GOOD thing. It's a safety issue. If your son or daughter was struck by an ebike rider, suddenly you'd grasp the rationality behind the enforcement. Until then...
And if your son or daughter was struck by a car driver, suddenly you’d grasp the rationality of enforcement…oh, wait…
More anti poor bs thats my tax money your wasting!!
A motor has a combustion chamber
Cops won't do shiiiii
Its the individuals the freaks that are causing the problems so now the people that are actually following, the rules won’t get to ride in a certain area because of pathetic city dumb rules
Ebikes on CITY STREETS, should be in the car lanes with other motorized vehicles, not in the cycling lanes, they are not "bicycles," they are motor cycles with pedals! end of story!
You're an idiot. End of story.
" Land of the free " 😂😂😂
get operators license
The people who are riding these e-bikes recklessly are to blame which is why laws like these are created. Unfortunately, these laws also hurt safe riders.
While some here complains about this law, you also have to consider why is this law being implemented at the first place.
Absolutely. New laws and safety guidelines will be created and implemented every now and then. It is up to us to follow them or not.
I rarely have a problem with someone on an ebike, but have an issue with regular bikes all the time. Why aren't they trying to over regulate regularl bikes which are a much bigger problem. The answer, they are laying the ground work for eventual licensing, taxing, and insurance. It's all about lining the pockets of those in charge
@@dustinmckenzie5835yea I agree they need to be regulated too if they are causing problems too. A lot of them don’t follow traffic laws either.
Every time I see a video like this I think God I moved to idaho. You people are nuts for staying there and deserve every single regulation you get
$25 fine yeah catch me if you can 🤣😂
Banning kids under 12 from riding bicycles is unconstitutional. Class 1 & 2 eBikes are bicycles under Federal Regulations so CA law is trumped by Federal Law for all states.
There is no law prohibiting children under 12 from riding bicycles. But children under 12 shouldn't be riding e bikes on the roadways with traffic. And it's illegal for kids under 18 to ride regular bikes on the road without a helmet. We don't need kids on the road, especially unsupervised. A child endangerment law will be next. Parents don't seem to care about their kids these days like they used to.
How about let the parents decide if it's safe for their children to ride. So many pathetic adults need the gov to tell them what do.
1:24 solution n isnt to not have bikeacthere bit to make cara becaafer for alll 🤷🏾♂️
California/not surprised
Yeah 1+ tonne autos never killed anyone..
Cars are the problem.
But yall want the EVs all over huh ?
Why are bike shops still making big money selling, and people keep buying when everyday the places these ebikes can go gets smaller and smaller? These bikes are too dangerous to be in the hands of kids as young as elementary school in the first place. Too dangerous to be on the streets with drivers who don't respect any road laws. Too dangerous to share the sidewalks with pedestrians. Too dangerous for park trails & beach access because riders think trails are some kind of motorcross. E-bike riders have brought all this upon themselves. Maybe just plain regular exercise on a normal bike will come back in style.
Yea no boomer
Yup the law is just trying to find a way to tax us it's not about safety. They'll start off that way. Then it'll be well you need this and that to ride.
@@thevolkster2049yea no boy
Nope. There are 100 times more issues with people on regular bikes, but they are allowed to weave in and out of traffic, blow through red lights, and cut people off, but it's ok because the bike is powered by their legs and not a motor.
Will not work .
Just because it has pedals it's still a motor bike. If you're riding it in traffic, they should have the same laws as motorcycles like wearing a helmet and using turn signals, brake light, taillight, and a headlight that's on during the day too. They should also have insurance in case you hit someone because they can't hear you coming and they sue you. As they start causing more accidents the laws will change again. If some fool is riding one on the sidewalk, I'm not moving out of their way, they'll have to go off the sidewalk to go around me or hit me then I'll sue them. Some counties won't even let you ride a bicycle on the sidewalk.
