Does it say "no motorized vehicles"? That does not include ebikes in my area (Southern US).

What I'm talking about is what I saw when I traveled to China. They have these sections of the main streets that are just for 1 person electric vehicles/bicycles. Then they have the main road on one side and the pedestrian sidewalk on the other. That's more what I'm talking about.

Yeah, exactly. I think that varies area to area. In my area the county manages the trails, and they've made statements saying that those "onewheel" motorized boards aren't allowed, because they're motor vehicles. I assumed that also applied to ebikes, but you may be right.
