In this era of rapid change, even the small electric vehicles we use for daily travel have begun to have a new identity - electric motorcycles and electric mopeds. These two new stars in the "e-Mule world" have now officially entered the door of the motor vehicle family, and they need to hold E and F licenses to legally go on the road. Imagine, your small electric that you usually step on easily, and now you may have to take a "book" first, is there an inexplicable sense of joy?
It turns out that in the eyes of traffic laws, electric two-wheeled riders with a speed of more than 25 kilometers per hour are no longer "free men" who flutter in the wind. According to the relevant regulations, once the speed exceeds this threshold, your car is promoted from an "electric bike" to an "electric motorcycle", which means that without the corresponding driver's license, it is like a circus monkey riding a unicycle into the F1 track, although courageous but obviously out of order.
Let's talk about these two big names in the "e-donkey world": electric motorcycles and electric mopeds. The former, with strong power and considerable speed, requires the driver to have an e-license, which is equivalent to the "A license" of the electric vehicle industry. The latter is relatively mild, suitable for short-distance urban commuting, and can be controlled with only an F license. The difference between the two is like a sprinter and a marathon runner in a race, although they belong to the same field, but each has its own track and rules.
According to statistics, in recent years, the scale of China's electric two-wheeled vehicle market has been growing, and the number has reached hundreds of millions, and the speed of a considerable number of vehicles has exceeded the standard of 25 kilometers per hour. This means that with the implementation of the policy, a large number of electric vehicle riders will enter the driving school for baptism in the future. This scene is a bit unbearable to think about, as if you can see the driving school instructor holding the whip in his hand, shouting to a group of electric car students: "Stepping on the accelerator is not such a step, are you riding an electric bicycle or catching a plane?" ”
Although this change may be uncomfortable for some EV users who are used to "driving without a license", it is undoubtedly an improvement from a traffic safety perspective. After all, whether it is a gasoline or electric vehicle, mastering the correct driving skills and complying with traffic regulations are important prerequisites for ensuring road traffic safety. In this regard, we might as well accept it with a more open mind, and actively participate in the discussion, and pay attention to this new regulation change related to our daily travel.
To sum up, the world of electric two-wheelers is quietly changing, and this change is not only about driver qualifications, but also about road safety awareness. The next time you ride your beloved little electric donkey, you might as well think about whether your "mount" also needs a driver's license. Let's laugh together**, and we'll see you next time.
