The New York City Council is set to review new safety measures aimed at regulating e-bikes and scooters during a public hearing. Proposals under consideration include potential speed limits, helmet requirements, and designated riding zones to reduce accidents and improve road sharing. Advocates argue stricter rules are needed as ridership grows, while industry representatives may push back against restrictions they say could hinder mobility. The discussion comes amid rising concerns over injuries and conflicts between riders and pedestrians in urban areas.
