NYC sees record fires, deaths from E-bikes — awarded $25M in federal funding

While electric vehicles of all sorts are being pushed on Americans, it remains obvious that technology has a ways to go before producing a product that is truly a viable alternative.

EVs are stacking up at car dealerships and a new study shows that in addition to being expensive, maintenance costs dwarf the costs of owning vehicles with combustion engines. EV owners are also learning that their car batteries don’t function well in frigid weather.

Turns out, electric bicycles are not faring any better. With Democrats pushing these devices as another solution to global warming, New York City saw a record number of fires, injuries, and deaths last year from these bicycles, according to Fox News.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address
