That link talks about e-scooters, I was talking about electric bicycles. Is there a similar regulation for those? I have a friend living in London and I don't recall him saying anything about bikes, but did say personal e-scooters were illegal at the time.
In reply to your other comment, I'm not surprised riders of e-scooters have more injuries. Those things are extremely unstable and have next to no brakes. Quite different from bikes, which have better handling characteristics.
Also, the kinds of e-bikes that don't require a license in France only go faster then a regular bike when going uphill. On flat terrain, they're similar. So I don't see why there would be more injuries per mile traveled. The ones that have assistance to a higher speed are a different thing, and expect to see the same kind of injuries as for mopeds.
