Remove sales tax from:

- child carriers for bikes
- cargo bikes capable of carrying children

Revisit e-bike legislation to allow children under 16 to be carried by electrified cargo bikes. Currently they are allowed on dangerous motorcycles at 100km/h, but not safe electric cargo bikes at 30 km/h. This is the future of family transportation in many cities, with e-bikes outselling electric cars in both the United States and Europe in 2017.

Recognize that bikes are different from motor vehicles and our laws need to prioritize safety over equality. The Idaho stop is one example of ensuring equity and increasing safety for cyclists.
