> E-Bikes do not require license plates

Maybe in US but in various parts of Europe this ain't true, you cross certain threshold for power or speed and license plate is required, with corresponding insurance - same for e-scooters.

Ie in Switzerland thats 20kmh so basically all of them since they often cut off at 25kmh. Almost nobody does that for weaker ones and thus police keeps taking them and then you see police guys riding around say Geneva on various e-scooters.





TIL. Never been a requirement in the US which is a great privacy hack.
