E-bikes are now commonly seen on New York City streets but pose safety risks due to their speed and weight. Recognizing the dangers, the New York Police Department is increasing enforcement efforts in 14 busy e-bike corridors to ensure riders comply with traffic rules. New regulations will issue criminal court summonses for serious violations previously treated too leniently. This step aims to hold e-bike operators accountable, providing safer streets for pedestrians and cyclists alike.
E-bikes have become commonplace in communities across our city, but their fast and heavy nature can be extremely dangerous without proper governance.
The New York Police Department is stepping up enforcement in 14 high-traffic e-bike corridors to increase traffic safety and compliance with the rules of the road.
