Open petition: Introduce mandatory registration and licensing for e-bikes

Created by Henry Kendrick
Closes on

We want the government to introduce mandatory registration and licensing alongside other regulations to align the system with what is in place for mopeds.

We believe a registration system helps to decrease the risk of individuals purchasing second-hand e-bikes that may be defective or unlawfully modified. Requiring e-bike riders to have a license could aid in preventing underage riders through the enforcement of stricter identification protocols. Licensing also ensures that riders possess the necessary experience and are familiar with road regulations.
