E bikes on public roads
Good afternoon Brantford. I am a long time resident and I started commuting to work on an ebike. I am a 50/m but started riding due to financial reasons. My bike does not go faster than 30 kph so I stay on side roads. I stay off of sidewalks and stop at every stop sign. Yesterday on Grand river Ave (40kph) and a driver in a mini van ran me off the road and nearly killed me when I almost rear ended a parked car. My question to everyone is as an ebike rider, how can I commute if I can't ride on the sidewalk and drivers try to kill me on the road.BTW the driver, you know who you are, has been reported to the police with his licence plate. Only a question, not looking for an argument. Thanks. Have a great one
