NYC 15-MPH speed limit for e-bikes set to start in one month (nydailynews.com)

An important and overlooked part of this is that it is only in bike lanes. I have a class 3 ebike and the bike lanes are so chaotic that I just keep to the street. Insured drivers are much more predictable and safer than your average citi-biker


I don't have an ebike, but I often get to 18 mph on my bike when commuting by bike on a bike path. With a tailwind I can go even faster...
