I mean it looks just like a moped without any bodywork on it. You sit in the same position and presumably control it the same way.

Why not just get an electric moped at that point and then you can go to like 60kmh without having to worry about getting pulled over?

    That's kind of what I'm getting at. This thing is an unregulated low powered motorbike. I'm sure you can buy them from Temu for a few hundred dollars, because they don't have to meet any regulatory standards.

    I'm in favour of new legislation to regulate these as a separate "e-moto" class.
