An Act relative to class 3 electric bicycles

HD 3371 defines "Class 3 electric bicycles" as those with pedal-assist motors that stop aiding at 28 mph. It updates the general definition of "electric bicycle" to include all three classes (1, 2, and 3) and removes the prohibition on riding them on sidewalks. The bill also amends trail regulations to allow municipalities, after public notice and hearing, to regulate or prohibit e-bikes on natural surface trails (cleared soil, no added surfacing), replacing a prior outright ban. This directly affects e-bike riders, manufacturers, and local governments managing trails and public spaces.
