  Speaker 4: Oh e bikes, Yeah, e.
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: Bikes, electric bikes. Peyton, what is your perspective on this
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: and what's going on?
• 1:08
  Speaker 5: Well, the e bikes have officially infiltrated my family's group chat.
• 1:13
  Speaker 5: My nephew King, He's going to be twelve in August,
• 1:16
  Speaker 5: and my sister sent out this huge PSA in our
• 1:18
  Speaker 5: family group chat saying like, I know King's Birthday's coming up, everybody,
• 1:22
  Speaker 5: do not buy him an e bike and the antie
• 1:25
  Speaker 5: and me wants to buy him an e bikes so bad, oh,
• 1:28
  Speaker 5: just to make her mad. Now why wouldn't Because I'm
• 1:31
  Speaker 5: also in all my mom group chat, like all my
• 1:33
  Speaker 5: mom Facebook groups, so I see all of the e
• 1:36
  Speaker 5: byke craze. But in my head, I'm thinking back and
• 1:39
  Speaker 5: like when I was his age, younger than that, we
• 1:42
  Speaker 5: were driving those mini mopeds all around town, and I'm like,
• 1:45
  Speaker 5: it's so bizarre because we need to have some regulations,
• 1:48
  Speaker 5: but also I feel like we should be. There's some
• 1:50
  Speaker 5: kids out there that are following the laws of the
• 1:53
  Speaker 5: road and they're perfectly fine out there, but it has
• 1:56
  Speaker 5: officially infiltrated my house.
• 1:57
  Speaker 3: So in our neighborhood.
• 1:59
  Speaker 4: In our neighborhood, they are not following the rules, and
• 2:01
  Speaker 4: I swear somebody is gonna die. They pop wheelies and
• 2:04
  Speaker 4: fly down our street and you can't see them, and
• 2:08
  Speaker 4: they have their helmets on without the strap and they're
• 2:11
  Speaker 4: driving along. It's so dangerous. It makes me so nervous.
• 2:15
  Speaker 5: I saw a mom in the Chandler area had actually
• 2:18
  Speaker 5: gotten arrested because her son was riding on an e
• 2:22
  Speaker 5: bike and he actually had gotten hit.
• 2:24
  Speaker 3: It had some injuries.
• 2:25
  Speaker 5: But the mom got arrested because she knew he was
• 2:27
  Speaker 5: driving on the road like without a license, and that
• 2:30
  Speaker 5: she got arrested. No, she got put in the.
• 2:34
  Speaker 3: Handcuffs because he didn't. You have to have a license
• 2:38
  Speaker 3: to do.
• 2:38
  Speaker 5: For some of them, they have certain models and modes.
• 2:41
  Speaker 4: Of these because they go faster than the speed limit.
• 2:44
  Speaker 5: They're basically motorcycles.
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: Well that's what I see in our neighborhood a lot.
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: And I was talking to my neighbor about it. He
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: wouldn't be my neighbor. He's like a quadruple black belt badass,
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: and he chased them these kids down.
• 2:55
  Speaker 3: He said, look, he goes, I understand what you guys
• 2:58
  Speaker 3: are doing.
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: He goes, but you need to be careful because for
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: your safety, he goes, you're gonna get taken out.
• 3:02
  Speaker 3: Some truck because these guys are zigzagging everywhere.
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: And if you go to like there's a grocery store
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: parking lot, there's zigzagging through the parking lot like it's
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: it's bound to be. And I saw something that happen,
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: Like in Gilbert they put some rules. Now there's like
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: legal laws that have passed. I don't know what they are,
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: but I saw it in the news and I was like, man,
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: this is big. But this is what I was telling
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: Blake the other day. We were hearing were walking around
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: the block and then some by guys came by really fast, right,
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: and they like do the wheelies, they stick their legs,
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: are doing all these tricks. And I thought, are e
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: bikes to us? What like me on a skateboard was
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: to the older guys, Because when I was on a
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: skateboard and all my friends were skateboard were like those
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: udlums on skateboards.
• 3:38
  Speaker 3: They gotta follow the rules.
• 3:40
  Speaker 4: It's not electric and it's not like driving down the
• 3:42
  Speaker 4: street and you're popping wheelies and being terribly unsafe. I mean,
• 3:46
  Speaker 4: you can be safe unsafe on a skateboard, but not
• 3:49
  Speaker 4: like that.
• 3:49
  Speaker 3: I don't know.
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: I wonder if it's the same thing. It's kind of
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: the way like the the way music was when Elvis
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: came out rock and terrible up, I call it crap.
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: It's like, now it's what we do. It's great music.
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: We love music.
• 4:05
  Speaker 3: It's just something. Is our e bikes what skateboards were?
• 4:09
  Speaker 3: I think so right if it's.
• 4:11
  Speaker 5: A fair comparison, I know, I feel like maybe like
• 4:14
  Speaker 5: a motorized skateboard you'd be able to they have no comparison.
• 4:19
  Speaker 5: But it's like with these e bikes. It's like I
• 4:21
  Speaker 5: was driving down Gilbert Road the other day and there
• 4:24
  Speaker 5: was kids riding on the wrong side of the road,
• 4:26
  Speaker 5: popping wheels and flipping cars off, like that's out of pocket.
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: People were doing that on Yeah, they were skateboards, flipping
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: people off. We didn't even have helmets. Then we were
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: just like, you know, ten year twelve year old medal
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: the society. Yeah.
• 4:39
  Speaker 4: The sad thing about this whole thing is is e
• 4:42
  Speaker 4: bikes are fun. Like shout out to Pat Hickey. He
• 4:44
  Speaker 4: gave us two of them and we didn't want them, no,
• 4:47
  Speaker 4: but we have gone on date nights and it's been
• 4:50
  Speaker 4: fun on it.
• 4:51
  Speaker 3: But yeah, but those are not pop wheeling, and.
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: Those are bikes we have are the ones that you've
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: got to pedal and then you kind of go to
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: twelve bike. The e bikes that these kids have or
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: like seemed like motorcycles and they're going right, I mean
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: right pedals, some don't.
• 5:03
  Speaker 5: That's why the classification of whatever bike it is. That's
• 5:06
  Speaker 5: why like the police officers are arresting their parents because
• 5:09
  Speaker 5: they're like, you.
• 5:09
  Speaker 3: Need to know what you're putting your child.
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: Now.
• 5:11
  Speaker 3: I haven't seen that the parents getting arrested. That's crazy.
• 5:14
  Speaker 3: I've always seen.
• 5:15
  Speaker 5: One article on it though.
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 5:17
  Speaker 4: You know. One other thing is like our son Jake,
• 5:19
  Speaker 4: had one of those mini bikes and he I don't
• 5:21
  Speaker 4: know what he did to it, but he made it
• 5:23
  Speaker 4: so it was faster, do you remember, but like some
• 5:25
  Speaker 4: pin in it.
• 5:26
  Speaker 3: Or something whatever they get going around that sucker was fast.
• 5:29
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 5:30
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it was a lot of fun to ride.
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: But he followed the rules and he wore a helmet
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: and he just did it up and down our street
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: and he couldn't pup with because they're so heavy anyway,
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: just putting it out there your take on e bikes.
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: I think eventually some people are going to get like,
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: I haven't heard of a kid on me by getting
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: hit yet.
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: Oh yeah, kids are gonna hit all the time. They are.
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: I haven't seen it, you know. Also, I get my
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: news from I get my news on Instagram. Now that
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: I've talked about, my phone probably picked up and I'll
• 5:54
