The use of e-bikes on bike paths has been questioned lately in the United States. It is true that these are clean forms of mobility, but they are also among the most vulnerable vehicles. Some of them can even drive very fast and with their heavier weight they are more dangerous in the event of a collision. Given the explosion in sales of electric bicycles in 2021, the number of VAE keeps increasing. Hence the interest in rethinking their use on cycle paths.
The first solution put forward is the mixing of bodied motor vehicle traffic with electric bicycle traffic and traffic from all other electric modes of transport. This can relieve the clutter a little cycle lanes, but it can promote accidents. It can also demotivate people from using e-bikes and clean mobility as a whole. Which will increase the pollution of the environment.
