@meganL asks:
Q5. How can we legislate and design to discourage dangerous riding that we assume e-cycles enable without being ableist fuckheads about it?

@meganL @bikenite A5. I don't have a good answer, but the city of Dublin, CA, just enacted a new anti-e-bike ordinance: https://dublin.ca.gov/m/newsflash/home/detail/5394
no doubt some people are riding like jerks, but it feels like many ride on the sidewalk, etc, because there are no other places for people to ride without sharing the road with 40mph cars with no separation.
So I don't have a great answer other than make more facilities / streets available where it's not possible to drive or ride too fast or dangerously, while also being able to accommodate lots of different types of cycles.
