though i agree with regulation, i am a 20mph limit guy; however i dont live in new york (and have never been). if 15mph suits the city, i see no problem with it.
hopefully the mayor has taken a few days to ride around in an ebike to know what he is signing (though i highly doubt it)
15 MPH does not suit the city. I was a daily cyclist in NYC for a long time and 15 MPH is generally the minimum speed you need to be going to keep safe in traffic. Capping a small motorized vehicle to 15 MPH while cars are zooming past at 30+ is not good.
ooohhhh, i didnt realize the cars had a faster speed limit. yeah, thats kinda fucked up.
