Safe SPEEDS Act

This bill would require the Consumer Product Safety Commission to issue, within 1 year, a national safety standard for classifying and labeling low-speed electric bicycles and other off-road electric devices sold in or imported into the United States. The standard would set distinct classifications, minimum age recommendations, and a permanent label showing each product's class, motor power, top motor-only speed, and recommended minimum age. It would ban selling products labeled as low-speed e-bikes that do not meet the definition, are designed to be modified to go faster or have more power, or are made for off-road use without working pedals. The Commission would also study crashes, injuries, and deaths tied to these devices, report to Congress, create a public training module, and award grants funded at $2.5 million per year for fiscal years 2027 through 2031 to law enforcement, emergency services, and state, local, and tribal governments.
