    Why? Lawfare by the car industry. Also why four-wheel velomobiles/pedal-electric cars are banned on bike lanes in many countries. A 7 year old post about it. The situation has improved somewhat since then, but I don’t know exactly how and where.

It’s a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:

Don’t be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.

Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.

Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.
