E-Bike Menace in China

E-Bikes are menacing the streets of China. Silent, fast, heavy, and no license required, their popularity is soaring and so are the number of people being killed on and by them. The WSJ takes a test drive, below. As an aside, around 2:30 in the video they interview a woman named "Cheng Taitai". Really, WSJ? Taitai means "Mrs." in Mandarin, so her name is Mrs. Cheng, not Cheng Taitai. Major fail, but good video nonetheless. Watch out next time you're in China!
