Proposed e bike laws changes

Committee recommendations

Under 16s banned on all e devices.

Licence requirement exemption for those medically unable to drive but able to ride.

The committee recommended the 10km/h limit not apply to shared paths unless otherwise signed, and that the department consider a limit of 15km/h within 10 metres of a pedestrian on shared paths.

And non compliant e bikes bought before new laws be exempt.
