"Transportation using lightweight vehicles such as bicycles or scooters, especially electric ones that may be borrowed as part of a self-service rental program in which people rent vehicles for short-term use within a town or city.
micromobility is seen as a potential solution to moving people more efficiently around cities"

It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:
Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.
Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.
Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

They can? Do you mean, it is legal?
It would be called false advertising here, or maybe even fraud. Fraud as a business means 2 years jail, minimum.
When the police simply takes away the vehicles, they are punishing the parents, maybe the grandparents, who will then have to pay the replacement vehicle for the spoiled brat. This does not change anything. It even helps the sellers who make additional revenue :-(

Take a look at this. The bike doesn't have pedals. But the phrase "mountain bike" is on that page nine times.
Also this. "Some riders are increasing the speed of their Sur Rons to over 80MPH."
Not an ebike. An emotorcycle.
There's nothing illegal in selling or owning one, and you can use them on your own land or ride around dirtbike tracks as much as you want. But I can guarantee that nowhere will any of the sellers be found claiming using one on public roads would be legal, because it isn't.
This is BTW the exact same reason why you can buy electric scooters in the UK even though they are illegal to ride on public roads, as that is the only illegal part.
