Alrighty,

So your system knows the exact situation and still is slowing down my bike, just at the moment I need to accelerate to avoid being overrun by that large truck heading into me.

How stupid are these folks? We’ve got rules, when people don’t follow those rules, you fine them. Case closed.

No system to prevent a bike speeding, teach people to obey the law.

    People in this thread clearly have never been to Amsterdam. We have protected bike lanes, and where there is mixed traffic, bikes have preference and are actually respected by larger vehicles.

    On the other hand, there has been an increase in accidents due to electric bikes going too fast mixed with normal bikes and pedestrians.

      Also eBikes in the Netherlands don’t have acceleators unless they’re illegally modified.
