Dear Editor:

To avoid collisions with people walking, the police in Queens should enforce the law that prohibits electric bicycles and scooters from being driven on sidewalks. Electric bicycles and scooters should be ridden only in the street alongside other motorized vehicles. People who love to ride them can become advocates for bike lanes.

Sidewalks should be reserved exclusively for people to walk along, browse, shop, socialize and relax. Pedestrians who are struck by electric bicycles or scooters can be seriously injured. Frail seniors and young children are particularly vulnerable.
