It makes sense. I have a car out of necessity because it's a 15 min drive to work or 2.5 hours by bus. I got an ebike 3 years ago and now much prefer to run errands by bike instead of the hassle of driving. Parking lots alone are so stressful. My car is now in the garage unless I'm going to work or taking the pets to the vet, whereas I used to drive everywhere.

My job is moving offices next year and Ill be able to ride to work, but my job description says I need to have a car for work (they pay us a vehicle allowance) so Im going to buy an insanely small engined cheap piece of shit and leave it in the work carpark, only use it for work and track every cent I spend on it so I can deduct any extra expenses at tax time AND get more exercise.
Just imagine if we had similar subsidies on ebikes that we have on EVs.
What bike is this? Seems not a standard shape but my God I want one for exactly this reason

As a avid and lifelong motorcyclist, this makes me happy. Electric motorcycles will show up in volume eventually and the line between electric bicycles and electric motorcycles will get blurred. Some young electric bike riders will move to electric motorcycles, which is good for the sport

Nice! Now where do you park them? They're banned from being parked indoors or in garages in many locations, because of battery fires and explosions...

Great! Now do the container ships that move them and their parts to their sellers.
