New York City has launched a major crackdown on illegal high-speed e-bikes and e-scooters, issuing cease-and-desist notices to 42 online retailers, including Amazon, Walmart, Target, Wayfair and Temu parent PDD Holdings. Mayor Zohran Mamdani said the action follows a series of fatal crashes involving vehicles that allegedly exceed the city's legal safety limits. Officials argue the products pose growing risks to pedestrians, cyclists and motorists, vowing stricter enforcement against companies selling non-compliant devices. The move comes after the recent death of a 17-year-old and amid rising concerns over e-bike and e-scooter safety in the city.
