Seems it's easy to modify an e-bike to travel up to about 45 kph.

Unskilled newbies blasting through traffic at 30 mph? Sure! What could
go wrong?

Singapore figured this all out some years ago and passed laws limiting
e-bikes to their placarded power and limited their use (pathways,
highways, etc). And I believe that currently e-bikes must be
registered and have number plates.

The penalty for illegally modifying an e-bike is $2,000 and/or 3
months in jail.
