Feb. 27th, 2026 07:09 amE-bikes are a scourge. There are a LOT of stories(especially on Nextdoor) about near misses and actual accidents .Going through intersections without even looking.Kids are clueless about rules.
Thing of it is, parents should be aware of what kids are doing but they’re not.Well, not until their kids have an accident and *then* they do! There are plenty of near-accidents too and pretty sure that kids just play it off like it’s nothing.It IS something.
Bike riders in Amsterdam(and there are a LOT of them) literally have to stay in their own lane.
They have new laws in the States *because* of how out of control things have gotten.See which system works better?Yeah.
