Whether it makes sense is irrelevant, I just wish all those who constantly either initiate or return to this subject would stop banging their heads against the wall.
IT WILL NEVER HAPPEN.
The reasons it won't happen are simple:
1) The law as it stands has become a world standard, now in force through the EU and and the non EU countries of Europe. Also in China, Japan, Australia and a host of smaller countries. Politicians and civil servants invariably play safe by following the herd, since that doesn't risk their necks by sticking them out. That's why they won't change the law. Instead they pull into ever greater alignment as we've all seen in recent years.
2) There is already widespread law requiring the 15.5 mph bicycle based class L1e-A to have registration, insurance, number plates and compulsory m/c helmet wearing. There is obviously no way we will be able to have faster assisted machines without these.
3) There are already the S class high speed e-bikes which are permitted to have over 15.5 mph assistance, subject to registration, number plates, insurance, helmet and a group Q or better driving licence. Obviously we will not be permitted more assist speed without those restrictions. Indeed, most of Europe and the rest of the world don't allow the S class at all, not even the USA.
Please, look at the facts and realise that our pedelec permission is only a limited concession to continue with our vehicles considered as bicycles if lightly assisted via the pedals, and only to commonly accepted utility riding speeds. As I've shown above, the slightest deviation from that means they become motor vehicles in existing law with all that implies.
So once again, please stop head banging, you won't get anywhere.
