Legalise riding gas-powered bicycles & pit bikes under 100cc on public roads
Background
Fully legalise the right to ride gas-powered bicycles and pit bikes under 100cc on public roads and paths. We feel current laws demand costly motorcycle licenses, tax, and insurance—impeding cheap travel.
Additional details
We want the Government to stop punishing low-income commuters and young people, and to give us affordable transport! We feel travel costs are too high. E-bikes provide free travel but can cost thousands to buy. Gas-powered bicycles and pit bikes under 100cc can cost a fraction of the price and match e-bike top speeds, yet current legislation restricts their use. Legalising the use of gas-powered bicycles and pit bikes could create transport equality for low-income workers and youth, and unlock affordable, independent travel!
