Here is NL, legally in town I'm supposed to be driving in traffic with this bike, it's an s-pedelec, not a normal e-bike. It's insured and has a yellow license plate, and it is legally treated like a 45 kph scooter even though it clearly isn't a scooter visually and so drivers get irritated by the slowpoke in 'their' lane.

Ooh sorry I thought you were talking about the bike, not the 45km/h thing. Got it!

  • Np, it's a confusing subject in practice and to talk about. There are 6 different classes of vehicle here that you can find on a bike path and probably more when you start to factor in cargo bikes and such.
