E-bikes could get faster, more powerful and not require pedaling, in a move announced today by UKGOV. Cycling organizations are opposed to the plans.

Im from the Netherlands, we have great bike infrastructure. But fatbike cyclists in particular are horrible drivers, endanger everyone else and dont follow any traffic rules.
Im sure you are a smart and responsible person but the fact is 99% of fatbike cyclist here are assholes
Also: We have 10 year olds driving on tweaked fatbikes going 50 km/h . Not legal but a national problem. Explain to me how its safe for a 10 year old to drive such a vehicle
Secondly a normal bike is a fraction of the weight of a fatbike. And the fatbike is moving twice the speed. If a collision does happen the normal cyclist is very much more at danger then with any normal bike.
The annual death amongst cyclist has skyrocketed here in the Netherlands. Ebikes and fatbikes are certainly a big factor in this.
Are you sure you’re not generalising a bit?
Because I’m sort of sure assholes can ride slim tyres as well… I’ve seen many.
I’m just not getting the causation of fat tyres = asshole driver.
Also, mine aren’t fat tyres. Not that it matters. Normal bike but a hub motor in the rear and a battery in the frame.
