I agree.

Really too bad about e-bikes. They certainly can be a benefit for older or disabled riders, commuters and just for folks wanting to get outdoors somehow and see stuff.

But a poorly regulated, rapidly growing industry combined with the basic human desire to just go faster have led to a dangerous mess.

Not to sound like a broken record… but on a pedal bike, by the time you can push 20 mph on a level surface you likely have at least some basic bike handling skills.
