Bill Summary
An act to amend Section 312.5 of the Vehicle Code, relating to vehicles.
AI Summary
This bill clarifies the definition of an electric bicycle in California by specifying that its electric motor is not capable of exceeding 750 watts of peak power, rather than simply not exceeding 750 watts. This change aims to provide a clearer standard for what constitutes an electric bicycle under the state's Vehicle Code, which already defines different classes of electric bicycles based on their motor assistance and speed capabilities, and imposes regulations on their use and labeling.
