I'm not sure this is true. I average faster than the maximum speed of electric bikes cycling my commute, and I do not feel remotely safe in city traffic. Drivers don't have a problem with slow cyclists, just cyclists in general.
- sunstone 7y agoAt different times I've been in all these roles, motorcyclist, cyclist, car driver and e-biker. As a driver I find e-bikes much less frustrating than pedal bikes because they keep up with traffic when the light turns green. As an e-biker I also feel safer because I stay fully in the traffic lane (at intersections), I don't have to always have one eye out for passing cars while I'm also changing gears and watching out for getting doored by parked cars. That's my experience.
