With the increase in unregulated e-bike in ND3, Acting Sergeant Jason MACDONALD (Caroline Springs Uniform) thought it would be a great opportunity to send something out to all the schools to place in their newsletters for the parents. Please see below:

Below is an example of compliant E-bike.

• A power assisted bicycle is identical to a pedal powered bicycle, except it has an auxiliary motor.
• EPACs are the most common type of e-bike available today. They have:
• At least one auxiliary propulsion motor
• A maximum continuous rated power of 250 watts
• A motor that provides power assistance when the rider is pedalling, and only up to 25km/h
• A motor that does not provide power at speeds higher than 25km/h.
• Power assisted bicycles that meet the above definition are allowed to be ridden in Victoria as they are classed as bicycles.

Road rules: E-bike riders must follow the same road rules as regular bicycle riders, including wearing a helmet, not using a mobile phone while riding, and using lights in low light.

No registration or license required: E-bikes do not require registration or a license, provided they meet the specified requirements

E-bikes with the following characteristics are illegal to ride on public roads and road-related areas:

• E-bikes with toggle switches which allow the bike to override the legal power and wattage limits outlined above
• An EPAC which continues to provide motorised power above 25km/h
• Any bicycle with a combined maximum continuous rated power output greater than 250 watts
• A device with no functional pedals
• A bicycle fitted with an internal combustion engine (e.g. petrol powered).
• E-bikes with these characteristics can only be ridden on private property. They are considered an unregistered motor vehicle and heavy fines apply for riding in public areas.

Warning: E-bikes typically use lithium-ion batteries which can pose a fire risk, particularly if they are improperly used, stored, charged, or manufactured.
