The cities of Manhattan Beach and Hermosa Beach have made some new emergency laws for the operation of bikes in the city limits. This appears to be in response to many gangs of young people on bikes and on off-road electric motorcycles, causing a lot of trouble on the bike path and near the pier. In this video, I talk about the new e-bike laws in Manhattan Beach and Hermosa Beach, which are the south Bay beach cities in Los Angeles county. There are speed limits and also rules in some places that require you to turn off your motor and the police are very serious now about impounding any off-road electric motorcycles ridden on the street or the bike path.  Some of these laws are new, and some of them are existing laws that the police are being more serious about enforcing to try and stop the e-bike gangs.
