    I don’t know what an e-bike is, but here in Cleveland we have an issue of dirt bikes that can go fast, but are loud. Gang members travel 80 people in a flock, and drive real slow. They block the whole street, going both directions.

    Cops have given up even trying to enforce any laws with them. These aren’t people with drivers liscenses. These are 15 year olds. But if a cop tries to pursue, they scatter, and shoot guns on the streets.

    Cops have realized it’s more dangerous than not to even attempt to arrest them.

    They don’t stick to the bike lanes. They drive into oncoming traffic at 10mph, but if you do anything against them, there’s a swarm of kids with guns all targeting you.

    It’s a real problem. So, yes, fuck cars, but also fuck these dirt bikes which are loud, and can go up to 80mph on a dime, all being driven illegally by unliscensed teens with automatic machine guns. It’s a collective of problems actually. Gang violence, gun control, unliscensed drivers, street driving violations. The list goes on.

      It’s a bicycle which got a small electric motor, which assists you while driving and is typically limited to a speed of 28 km/h or so, at least in the EU.
