Amsterdam testing system that can remotely slow e-bikes down
nltimes.nl
Alrighty,
So your system knows the exact situation and still is slowing down my bike, just at the moment I need to accelerate to avoid being overrun by that large truck heading into me.
How stupid are these folks? We've got rules, when people don't follow those rules, you fine them. Case closed.
No system to prevent a bike speeding, teach people to obey the law.

You got me there... :-)
I live in Canada and seeing so many people riding around without helmets in Amsterdam felt weird until I realized how protected the cyclists are by the design of the road infrastructure. Cycling while sharing the road with a truck with no barrier in-between is common where I live so I appreciate your perspective.
Also ebike speed is lower and closer to actual bike speeds in the EU which may play a role in head injuries.
