Question
To ask His Majesty's Government whether they have gathered data on the prevalence of e-bikers exceeding the speed limit of 15.5 miles per hour in urban areas; and if so, whether they will publish them.

The Home Office collects and publishes data on fixed penalty notices (FPNs) and other outcomes for motoring offences in England and Wales on an annual basis, as part of the ‘Police Powers and Procedures: Other PACE’ statistical bulletin. The most recent data, up to 2021, is available here:

However, the Home Office does not centrally collect data on the type of vehicle involved in the offence.
