Summary: Queensland’s parliamentary inquiry into bike safety may soon recommend banning e-bikes for children under 16 and requiring adults to have a driving licence to ride one. This could hinder access to personal mobility, negatively impact gig economy jobs, and exacerbate urban congestion. Advocates call for better cycling education in schools and a more supportive approach to active transport in Australia.
