It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:
Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.

Sadly I think the problem is the government don’t want to regulate. We have a right wing authoritarian government right now who need the votes from the older generation and are attempting to get it by instilling fear and presenting themselves as the protectors.
Younger people are more likely to have e-bikes and scooters, so making them illegal, exaggerating the threat and promoting initiatives like this to show what they are doing to combat the scourge of youths on silent killer bikes, they lock in the scared senior votes.
