Ebike Law Changes REJECTED - But THIS is why it DOESN'T MATTER

The UK Government proposed changes to Ebike Law including changing the max continuous motor power to 500w up from 250w and allowing throttles to be used up to 15.5mph. Sadly the proposals were rejected. However, this Ebike law in my opinion technically makes little to no difference. So it doesn't matter at all that they were rejected and it might even be a good thing! This is why...


Here are the governments original proposed changes to legislation:
