12 months in the making, New South Wales' Roads and Traffic Authority (RTA) has put out a proposal to regulate power-assisted pedal cycles such that motorized bikes would be prohibited.
The RTA discussion paper is full of holes big enough to drive tanks through. It is dishonest and flawed because it compares power-assisted pedal cycle (PAPC) legislation in several countries, but fails to address the fact that PAPC regulations co-exist with motor-assisted pedal cycles (MABs) in many places. The RTA proposal effectively stands for underpowered PAPCs and no MABs.
Why don't you have some fun finding the holes in the discussion paper and get them to us so we can give the public the truth about international situation regarding PAPCs and MABs?
I've attached a PDF of the RTA discussion paper. You can stitch the 5 word documents into a text only version to make copy and paste easier.
