The bad apples are just as much a problem for the Ebike community as they are for everyone else. Bans ,restriction, targeted enforcement. Every time some ones asks me how to make a Stealth Ebike to avoid scrutiny I tell them stealth is a riding style. I have a fast ebike. I get passed in stupid and unsafe ways by Ebikes all the time. Often older riders (maybe not older than me, but "older" in general). The funny thing is I never see the same one twice???
Think about building a stealthy Ebike (with skinny tire so it can't stop) going down a sidewalk at 30mph.
Where I ride the lawless motor vehicle operators are such a big problem that E bikes pretty much get ignored. Lucky me! I try my best not to share the road with those nitwits. The best way to do that is respect the other users of other options. Yield to pedestrins, blend with pedal bikes, and dismount for horses ( an actual thing here). Also in 20mph winds off the ocean give a pedal cyclist a draft to ride in.
