E-bike danger increasing and police ‘can’t do anything’ about it

NSW Shadow Transport Minister Natalie Ward says severe injuries and even death are increasing across New South Wales due to illegal e-bikes. “Four deaths last year and over 233 serious injuries, and it's only escalating,” Ms Ward told News24 host Chris Kenny. “We’ve been calling on the government to do something for over two years and during that time the problems got worse and worse and worse.” “We know pedestrians are scared, police can’t do anything, council officers can't do anything.”
