shrader Posted 5 hours ago Posted 5 hours ago I see kids riding these things on the road all the time with no regard for traffic laws. They’re a problem. It’s a little different but a couple months back I was at the gas station and some kids had taken their quad over there to grab some food. A cop happened to pull in for some gas of his own and then hilarity ensued. I wish I could have stuck around to see when the parents showed up. Quote

One of those eBike dudes with no regard for traffic law just got creamed here in the Buffalo area, but he wasn't a kid--he was 40.

Kids are mostly riding regular old time bikes Quote
