Wtf!?!? The #ebikes don’t look derelict at all. You just stole and trashed people’s property and probably their means of earning a living. @BikingPublic #bikenyc
You spoke we listened. After receiving complaints about abandoned/derelict mopeds and scooters from Barnwell Avenue and Queens Blvd. NCO-A with steady sector along side @NYCSanitation removed abandoned/derelict mopeds, scooters and other debris from the community of Elmhurst.
WTF! It seems like ppl don’t know this so we’ll say it here. IT👏🏽IS👏🏽NOT👏🏽OK👏🏽TO👏🏽BEAT👏🏽ANYONE. Not grandmas, not delivery ppl, not black men, not girlfriends. NO ONE.
wow. it looks like a delivery worker was beaten unconscious. i hope this individual is alive. our city's delivery workers are the backbone of the just-in-time economy. no one deserves this. cc @BikingPublic

Congrats to everyone in the #deliverjustice coalition on pouring their hearts into legalizing e-bikes for immigrant food delivery workers. A light in the midst of 2020. @TransAlt @LegalAidNYC @MaketheRoadNY @jessicaramos @CM_MargaretChin @cmenchaca @nily @AAFederation
As of today, 11/23/20, all e-bikes (Class 1-3) are allowed in NYC. E-Bike riders may use #BikeNYC lanes and should wear helmets. Helmets are required for 16-17 year olds and working cyclists, as well as all Class 3 riders.
More info: www1.nyc.gov/html/dot/html/b…
ALT E-bike. Can I ride an e-bike in nyc? Yes, if you are 16 or older, you can now ride an e-bike or e-scooter in NYC. Can I ride in a bike lane? Yes, e-bikes and e-scooters (not mopeds!) are allowed on bike lanes. You may also ride on any city street with a speed limit no greater than 30 MPH. Do i need to wear a helmet? Helmets are strongly recommended for everyone! If you are under 18 or your bike can go more than 20 MPH, a helmet *is* required by law. Helmets are also required for delivery cyclists.

This is peak racist white liberalism by @BilldeBlasio & NYC Council to shamlessly use POC as props to preserve headcount of racist policing system. Where is *care* for POC jobs & lives as they slash budgets for youth, education, health care, housing, etc while hiring more cops?
“Today’s NYPD is majority ppl of color.” - @NYCMayor raising concern about proposals to cut headcount, cadet class etc.

In 2016 @BikingPublic had 1st meeting in listening to Chinese delivery workers at Chinese Mutual Association led by Mr Lu when he told us: “We want to change this e-bike law. We’ve seen the world & we are not afraid to show ourselves.” ✊ #DeliverJustice

Congrats to our friends at @VendorPower who have fought long and hard for this victory.
Street Vendor Project Responds to @NYCMayor Announcing #NYPD out of Street Vendor Enforcement. This is a big step forward - but we must go further to #DefundNYPD & #LifttheCaps

UPDATE: The Mayor has just announced that the curfew has been lifted.

We are calling for an immediate end to the curfew that puts essential workers & all New Yorkers at risk, along with the immediate release of all who have been arrested for curfew violations. #BlackLivesMatter seiu32bj.org/press-release/n…
