Isn't stopping the powered propulsion the same mechanism? I suppose you are free to put pedals on your car as well if you like.

A bicycle(ebike) can be reasonably and with not too much effort accelerated manually past the speed limit(at least here in Uk/EU with the 15.5mph limiter) and in fact I'd say it's a very common occurance. The same cannot be said about any car, even if technically it's true that if you had some other source of prepulsion the car could go above its own speed limiter.
