A New York Democrat is pushing for new laws to address misleading sales tactics that have enabled e-motos and electric off-highway motorcycles to bypass regulations and be sold legally in the state.

Supporters say stricter enforcement is needed to protect consumers and ensure compliance with traffic and safety laws.
