NewzItalian authorities are implementing stricter regulations for electric bicycles following a similar crackdown on electric scooters. The new measures include the introduction of speed-monitoring devices for bicycles, known as 'bicivelox,' and the imposition of fines reaching up to 15,000 euros for non-compliant vehicles.
