    In my area of Europe, they are mostly used as food delivery bikes. I would love for them to be classified as a moped or something more than a bike, to get them out of pedestrian areas.

      Yeah, electric scooters are awesome, the problem is that they’re classified as bikes just cause they’ve got some pedals stuck on.

        Which by default are required, but they are easy to modify to use a throttle lever instead, and they tend to be modded to go 40+ km/h rather than the legal limit of 25 here in the NL.
