Is it true that electrically assisted pedal cycles must be limited to 6mph if operating with twist throttles?
<p>What provision or instrument requires this, if so?</p>

<p>This isn't true. In order to not be treated as a motor vehicle, &quot;twist and goes&quot; must be capable of pedal operation and must not provide electrical assistance above 15.5 mph.</p>
