Council member Robert Holden is calling for state-wide comprehensive regulation of e-bikes and mobility devices, proposing measures like required road tests, registration, license, and insurance for all EVs.

Traffic lines between drivers, electric vehicles, and pedestrians across New York City seemingly blur more and more by the day.
