Response text from high t alpha shemale @gluetaster: that’s not a cargo bike man that’s a loopholemobile

Edit: I found a slightly higher-quality version of the image:

      the loophole is… that there are pedals that must be used in order for the electric motors to kick in… a lot of e-bikes also use the same loophole… as long as the pedals are being used, it is basically a motorcycle (with sometimes insane speeds and acceleration)

          Just gonna drop in here to verify that I haven’t changed the picture (I did tweak the image description text shortly after posting for improved clarity, but that’s the only edit I’ve made).
