What this Bill does (mechanically)

Creates a new class called “prohibited bikes” (examples: non‑compliant e‑bikes, non‑compliant personal mobility devices, unregistered motorbikes that look electric) and gives police power to seize those vehicles found ridden or left in public places (Police Powers and Responsibilities Act: new ch 4A, sections 123A–123F; Transport Act: new s 6).
Establishes a statutory administrative process for owners to seek release of a seized vehicle, internal review by the commissioner and external review to QCAT, then automatic forfeiture and disposal if no valid claim is made (Police Powers and Responsibilities Act, ch 4A, ss 123G–123Q; ss 123T–123U limit review rights).
Authorises destruction or sale of forfeited vehicles, sets priorities for proceeds (costs, secured creditors, then consolidated fund) and allows the State to recover outstanding costs from known owners (ss 123Q–123S).
Gives police wide powers for attended and unattended seizure (stop riders, require keys/codes, cut locks, move vehicles to storage) and requires seizure notices and time limits for publication or service (ss 123D–123F).
Tightens evidentiary rules: certificates from the chief executive/commissioner about approved testing devices and other administrative steps are admissible evidence (Transport Act ss 121A, 123KA; Police Act s 123U) and section 124 creates a conclusive presumption about seized/disposed prohibited bikes subject to limited exceptions.
Imposes criminal and civil obligations on businesses and individuals involved with e‑mobility:

What it does

Mechanically, the Bill adds a package of powers, offences, evidentiary measures and regulatory duties focused on electrically assisted cycles, personal mobility devices and other small motorised two or three wheeled vehicles. It amends multiple instruments including the Police Powers and Responsibilities Act 2000, the Transport Operations (Road Use Management) Act 1995, the Summary Offences Act 2005, the State Penalties Enforcement Act 1999 and a suite of subordinate regulations and schedules. Key mechanical changes include the following.

New seizure, release, forfeiture and disposal regime for “prohibited bikes” in the Police Powers and Responsibilities Act 2000 (new ch 4A, ss 123C-123Q). Police can seize vehicles reasonably suspected of being a prohibited bike if they are being, or have been, ridden on roads, road-related areas or in public places (s 123C). Seized vehicles are subject to a statutory notice process (s 123F), an owner release application process (ss 123G-123H), internal review by the commissioner (ss 123J-123M), external QCAT review only after internal review (ss 123N-123O) and automatic forfeiture on specific events (s 123P). The commissioner may destroy or sell forfeited vehicles and apply sale proceeds to costs and secured interests (ss 123Q-123R). The Bill provides for costs notices to owners and debt recovery (s 123S). The chapter contains evidentiary certificates (s 123U), statutory protection from civil liability for officers acting in good faith (ss 123V-123W) and a strict finality clause restricting judicial review to jurisdictional error (s 123T).
New offensive and compliance provisions in the Transport Operations (Road Use Management) Act 1995 and Road Rules. The Bill defines “prohibited bike” (new s 6), inserts offences that make it unlawful to ride an electrically power-assisted cycle or a personal mobility device unless the rider is at least 16 and holds a valid driver licence (s 78B), and creates strict obligations on e-mobility providers to take reasonable steps to ensure users meet the age and licence requirement (s 78C). It creates parental liability for certain offences committed by children under 16, subject to defences (s 78D). It adds an offence to ride prohibited bikes in public (s 84B) and makes attaching a false compliance label to a vehicle an offence (s 84C). The Bill prescribes an EPAC standard by reference to EN 15194:2017+A1 (s 353B) and requires compliance labels for electrically power-assisted cycles (sch 4 definition).
