Episode Description

Queensland is considering banning e-scooters and e-bikes for under-16s following a parliamentary inquiry, after eight deaths and rising injuries involving these devices on Queensland roads in the past year. The core issue identified is illegal e-motorcycles with 1000-watt motors flooding Australia since 2021, rather than legal 250-watt pedal-assist e-bikes. The federal government reversed its 2021 decision just before Christmas, now blocking imports of these illegal devices, though hundreds of thousands already exist on Australian roads.
