Friends, I am asking for your assistance in emailing your Assembly Reps to ask that this bill not be made. This will affect all cyclists that utilize ebikes in a negative way.

Assembly Representatives NOW!

ACT NOW: STOP S4834/A6235

to SAVE Low-Speed E-Bikes before it's too late!

NJBWC along with many safe streets advocates has spoken out in opposition to the e-bike bill legislation (S4834/A6235) requiring insurance, registration and a license to ride ANY e-bike in NJ, including low speed e-bikes that go under 20mph.

After hearing from many NJBWC and coalition partners, alongside more than 3600 co-signers who opposed this bill, a new version was put forward at the end of December that continues to raise major concerns.

This bill was rushed through during the lame duck session, passed through Senate committees, and will be heard tomorrow, January 8th, in the last Assembly committee needed before it can be voted through on full votes from both houses.

We need you to CALL or WRITE your

Assembly Representatives

and Committee Members IMMEDIATELY

to STOP this bill from advancing to a full vote.

The new version of the bill continues to undermine New Jersey’s transportation goals:

Eliminates the current classifications used in 46 states and instead creates new and confusing categories using the terms low speed e-bike, motorized bicycle, and electric bicycle.

Still requires registration and license for low speed e-bikes (class 1), placing an undue burden on vulnerable populations including seniors, families using cargo bikes, people with disabilities, delivery workers and commuters, and others who benefit from mobility aids or may not have access to other modes of transportation.

Installs new age requirements for young riders, which are needed for high speed motorized bicycles or e-motos, but also includes requirements for license and registration on low-speed e-bikes that do not have a throttle and can only go up to 20 mph.

Doesn't provide a clear plan to implement the law. Existing legislation passed in 2019 for class 3 e-bikes that requires registration, insurance and a license has not been implemented or enforced and this bill calls for a massive increase in those requirements.

Requiring registration and a license will not meaningfully address roadway fatalities. This critical issue needs a fuller discussion with impacted constituents to develop a bill that addresses the real safety issues: unregulated high speed e-motos and motor vehicles. As we saw in 2025, the number-one source of over 500 fatalities and 3,000 serious injuries on New Jersey's roadways were motor vehicles.

New Jersey residents deserve a bill that meets their needs and does not eliminate the important economic, equitable mobility and environmental benefits of low speed e-bikes.

We urge you to CALL or WRITE your legislators and tell them to hit the brakes on this bill.

Rather than creating barriers to this equitable, low cost mobility option, the state should instead focus its resources on:

Enforcing the law which already requires licensing, registration and insurance for faster, higher-powered electric devices;

Requiring vendors to register and clearly label and inform customers on safety and the laws governing low speed vs high speed devices

Educating vendors, law enforcement, and parents on the difference between these devices;

Implementing proven strategies for reducing fatal and serious injury crashes on our streets, such as infrastructure improvements for people walking, biking and taking public transit.

Reach out to your legislators to STOP this bill before it’s too late!
