NYC Rules
rules.cityofnewyork.us
Every year, City agencies make over 100 changes or additions to the City rules that are an important part of how government interacts with the public. New Yorkers can review proposed rules and voice their opinions about those rules before they are adopted into law.

Today is a big day for the future of e-bikes in New York City. A hearing starts at 10 a.m. You can file a written comment until 5 p.m. You can also send an email to rules@dot.nyc.gov until 5 p.m

    Not a new Yorker, but it’s my understanding most modern cars do have a govener kick in and limit the speed. Usually somewhere around 110, so not practically useful, but the cap does exist

          Oh, so ebikes shoukd be limited to less than pedalling speed, but cars, with no manual propulsion, shouldnt?

          And no. Cars never need to go any speed; certainly not in fucking new york.

            Lol I never said anything of the sort. I don’t own a car (I have an ebike and ain’t nobody limiting it to 15) and I literally work in public transit, but it cracks me up how abrasive and unreasonable everyone on this sub is.
