There are many places where the legal definition of a thing does not match the dictionary or some group's understanding of a term. That's why the laws generally make a point of defining these terms:...

Personally, I care more about power limits and speed caps then whether or not you need to pedal it. But the law seems pretty clear on the pedaling issue in this case. The confusion seems to be on the...

My point is that some people can go that fast even if we outlaw ebikes. Therefore, outlawing ebikes is not a solution to that particular problem.
