Maybe you should check with nurses, emergency rooms, and healthcare. eBikes are second only to eScooters for injuries[0]. You're also far more likely to hurt other trail users.<p>On roads, speed doesn't always save you against other motor-vehicles, if that were true sport bike riders would never be hit.
