E-bikes in NYC: Safety advocates rally in Midtown for registration law to combat ‘lawless’ riding

Dozens of New Yorkers rallied in Midtown on Wednesday to support a state bill that would regulate e-bikes while making drivers more accountable after collisions.   

Led by Queens Assembly Member Jenifer Rajkumar, the group of advocates, including pedestrians and cyclists, gathered on 3rd Avenue near Gov. Kathy Hochul‘s office to throw their support behind Priscilla’s Law, which would require e-bikes to have license plates and be registered by the NYS Department of Motor Vehicles.
