In my community a couple of years ago some middle aged guy assaulted a teen who was riding his Surron (non peddle ebike/motorcycle) in the park. Was he speeding? Probably, but that doesn't excuse what that twat did. For the most part kids on these types of bikes aren't the problem.

Our real problem has been pre teens on 110cc dirt bikes. They ride in groups and have been literally terrorizing people. I talked to one lady who had to put her horse down when they scared it and caused it to break a leg. Then they laughed at her and rode off. The police can't catch them, though they've tried, but not that hard since they could actually do some simple detective work if they wanted to

Nothing to do with social media, all to do with at what point and electric bicycle becomes an electric motorcycle and the lack of laws and regulations keeping up with it. It used to be easy if the thing was making a noise, due to petrol engine, it's a motorbike. It's happening in every country and it feels like Chinese manufacturers are making all the money whilst the rest of the world catches up.

I know of a guy who had his driver's license permanently revoked because he racked up so many DUI's. He lived in rural Indiana, and bought a moped because they didn't require a license to drive. Obviously he did not stop driving drunk.

But also, the moped did in fact make noise.

Nah it's about being mad at teenagers or just mad at not driving a car. The US under Biden passed ebike regulations that are already a lot more strict than just a limit where it becomes a motorcycle, but a bunch of (mostly Democrat) states are either banning all ebikes period or banning most of the federal regulation classes because if Gavin Newsom sees a black kid have fun he instantly becomes Ronald Reagan.

The article has nothing to do with social media, the only mention of it is how adults put a comment on FB about antisocial behaviour of ebike riders. And clearly the clip of ripping up a golf course is antisocial. So actually the issue is, like in the UK, illegal emotorbikes that people should be prosecuted for.

[–] GreyEyedGhost@piefed.ca 8 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I guess the question is, is ripping up a golf course more or less antisocial than having a golf course?

[–] zout@fedia.io 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

From the view point of the law it is.

[–] GreyEyedGhost@piefed.ca 3 points 1 week ago

Well, it's a good thing laws are never wrong!

I agree with most of it.

If kids are acting out, it's because they're feeling powerless and/or unheard. So they banned social media. What did they replace it with? Did the government build public spaces meant for under-16s to gather and be social?

Golf courses are not a good thing,though. They are an absolute waste. The amount of water and chemicals used is atrocious.

Naw, ripping up a golf course is environmental activism, fuck golf courses.

sounds like a good thing. man do i miss actually going out and meeting people. i mean, i can go out, but i'm mostly alone, idk where everyone else is, the world feels so empty, devoid of people in it

They're stuck in their screens. And the businesses that provided relief have mostly been dying and becoming too expensive.

oh man, kids with bikes?! Get them inside!

Let kids ride bikes and have fun outside together. It’s healthy, it’s what we all did growing up for generations.

But do give them that safety talk and a warning about riding safely  

They find stuff to do and it will make them better people.
