NYC’s E-Bike Licensing Bill: Legal Concerns and Rider Impact
NYC’s proposed Intro 606 bill, requiring e-bike licensing, has raised concerns about its legality and fairness. According to Daniel Flanzig, a leading e-bike accident attorney at Flanzig & Flanzig, LLP, “The federal government has clearly classified e-bikes as bicycles, not motor vehicles, exempting them from licensing requirements.” The bill not only contradicts federal law but also risks disproportionately burdening delivery workers who rely on e-bikes for their livelihoods. Our firm is dedicated to protecting the rights of e-bike riders facing these legal and practical challenges.
How Intro 606 Impacts E-Bike Users
The bill’s proponents claim it aims to enhance safety, but critics highlight its impracticality and potential to hinder sustainable transportation efforts. Instead of punitive regulations, advocates are calling for investments in infrastructure and public awareness campaigns to address e-bike safety concerns. At Flanzig & Flanzig, LLP, we monitor these legal developments to provide e-bike users with expert representation in accident or injury cases.
