I'm pretty sure if they stopped skirting the laws, it'd eliminate a decent cohort of their customer base. Watching someone come through a pedestrian area at 45 mph on a "bicycle" that clearly is an electric motorcycle is pretty interesting.

Holy crap! How do they stop at that speed with those thin bicycle tires?

		What thin bicycle tires - they are much thicker than normal. However yes they are a problem.

		My e-scooter reaches 45 mph (advertised as 53). Normally, you would stop using the brakes or regen.
