Where bike infrastructure is lacking, it is easier to integrate with urban car traffic on an ebike because you can travel at closer to urban car speeds and start/stop more quickly. Car-oriented areas are also designed with less respect to topography than older areas designed around pedestrians, and electric propulsion makes biking up grades easier.
