TAKE ACTION to SAVE Low-Speed E-Bikes & STOP S4834\/A6235<\/p>\r\n<\/td>\r\n<\/tr>\r\n\r\n<\/table>\r\n<\/td>\r\n<\/tr>\r\n\r\n<\/table>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Right now there is a proposed bill requiring insurance, registration and a license to ride ANY e-bike in NJ, including low speed e-bikes that go under 20mph. This bill lumps all low speed e-bikes with higher speed devices under the term \u201cmotorized bicycles\u201d and eliminates the current classifications for different types of e-bikes.<\/p>\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n

The bill\u00a0(S4834<\/a>\/A6235<\/a>)\u00a0has been rapidly moving through the legislature, being rushed through committees, and could have a final vote any day, despite unanimous opposition from transportation advocacy organizations.<\/p>\r\n

NJBWC and coalition partners have testified at multiple hearings in opposition to the current legislation and continue to track its progress through the statehouse.<\/p>\r\n<\/td>\r\n<\/tr>\r\n\r\n<\/table>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

This bill works against many of New Jersey\u2019s own transportation goals:<\/p>\r\n
