I would like to know what this community thinks about e-bikes. Specifically are your opinions about e-bikes on the same level as regular bikes or are they closer to motorcycles which a lot of people in this community also dislikes.

Motorcycles are too loud. Otherwise fine.

Ebikes are better and logistically cooler.

That is fair. I don't like noise pollution altogether. But one other thing I don't like about motorcycles isn't really about the motorcycles. I've seen car drives tailgate people on motorcycles. I've seen car drivers cut off people on motorcycles because they refuse to check their blind spots.

It's really scary how bad drivers in my area are. I feel like if any driver is at fault in an accident, they have to go back and take a driving test.

So the thing you dont like about motorcycles is cars?

[–] IllNess@infosec.pub 3 points 5 days ago

I should've said what I don't like about riding motorcycles on the road with cars are unsafe drivers in cars.
