Podcast: Fishers New E-Bike Ordinance with Mayor Scott Fadness & Police Chief Ed Gebhart

Fishers has a new ordinance on the books governing e-bikes and other similar motorized vehicles, and city officials say the first goal is education, not tickets. In this podcast, Fishers Mayor Scott Fadness and Police Chief Ed Gebhart join LarryInFishers to discuss why the city moved forward with the ordinance, what kinds of complaints and safety concerns led up to the new rules, and how police plan to handle enforcement. The conversation covers how e-bikes and other motorized vehicles are being used around the city, the public reaction so far, and the city’s effort to balance safety with the growing popularity of these transportation options. Fadness and Gebhart emphasize that Fishers wants residents, parents and young riders to understand the rules before enforcement becomes necessary.
