E-bike speed limits are an ‘overreach,’ DeSantis says with veto

Governor Ron DeSantis vetoed a bill that would have capped e-bike speeds at 10 mph near pedestrians and established a task force for safety standards. The bill, SB 382, was sponsored by Sen. Keith Truenow and Rep. Yvette Benarroch and passed both legislative chambers unanimously. DeSantis argued the measure represented an 'overreach' and would lead to increased law enforcement surveillance.
