Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask His Majesty's Government whether they plan to introduce legislation so that cyclists can be charged for causing death by dangerous or reckless riding if they cause a death while riding an e-bike which has exceeded 15.5 miles per hour.

E-bikes that do not comply with the Electrically Pedal Assisted Cycles regulations, which includes a requirement for power assist to cut off at 15.5 miles per hour, are classed as mechanically propelled vehicles. As such, someone causing death by recklessly riding one would already be subject to a charge of death by dangerous driving.
