A dashcam caught a heart-stopping moment on Highway 169 where two e-moto riders cut across traffic at a busy intersection, narrowly avoiding a collision with oncoming vehicles during rush hour. With speeds up to 55 mph and minimal reaction time, this near-miss could’ve ended in tragedy—but nobody was seriously hurt. The incident underscores the growing safety concerns around e-motos, which are faster and more powerful than e-bikes and increasingly treated like motorcycles. While some cities like Champlin require helmets for teens and ban motorized dirt bikes on public roads, there’s no state law for e-motos in Minnesota. A proposed bill to regulate them statewide stalled in the legislature, leaving local governments to scramble for answers as more riders hit the streets.
