I'm pro e-mobility but I agree that any electric micro-mobilty that can travel over 20mph should need some type of registration/regulation

The crazy thing is that they do. NJ has some of the most robust motorized bike laws in the country. Jersey city seriously drops the ball on this at every corner. I've tried to talk to James Solomon about it for the past 2 years and his response is always that they are working on it. 2 years ago he said they were working on a plan and that he would send me the details. I've reached out recently about it and he still doesn't have a plan.

The legal powers that would allow enhanced enforcement of bike laws in Jersey City are there. The laws exist and are robust. Yet Jersey City police doesn't want anything to do with it because of liabilities.
