The bill introduces a new chapter to Title 31 of the General Laws, focusing on the regulation of electric bicycles. It categorizes electric bicycles into three classes based on speed capabilities and mandates helmet use for riders under 16 and all riders of Class 3 electric bicycles. Class 3 electric bicycles are restricted from exceeding 20 mph on bicycle lanes or multi-use paths. The bill exempts electric bicycles from motor vehicle provisions such as registration and licensing, and requires manufacturers to label each electric bicycle with classification number, top assisted speed, and motor wattage. Additionally, the bill amends existing law to include definitions for antique motor cars and motorcycles, allowing for the issuance of special registration plates for vehicles over 25 years old used in public functions. The bill also amends the definition of "electric motorized bicycle" to "electric bicycle," increasing the maximum speed limit from 25 to 28 mph. A new section, 31-1-23. Types of roads, is added, but its content is not detailed in the text. The bill provides definitions for various vehicle types, crucial for their classification and regulation. It also modifies the definition of "bicycle trail or path" to explicitly include electric bicycles. The changes are set to take effect on January 1, 2024, and aim to integrate electric bicycles into the existing framework for bicycles, while ensuring safety and regulatory compliance.
