An electric bicycle is afforded the same privileges as non-electric bikes under Florida law.  They are permitted in bike lanes, on bike paths, trails, and sidewalks.  An eBike is not required to be licensed or registered.

Except as otherwise provided in this section (316.2065 ), an electric bicycle or an operator of an electric bicycle shall be afforded all the rights and privileges, and be subject to all of the duties, of a bicycle or the operator of a bicycle, including s. 316.2065.

An electric bicycle is a vehicle to the same extent as a bicycle. 

An electric bicycle or an operator of an electric bicycle is not subject to the provisions of law relating to financial responsibility, driver or motor vehicle licenses, vehicle registration, title certificates, off-highway motorcycles, or off-highway vehicles.

An operator may ride an electric bicycle where bicycles are allowed.  This includes, but not limited to, streets, highways, roadways, shoulders, bicycle lanes, and bicycle or multiuse paths.

State of Florida (Statute 316.20655) defines electric bicycles (eBikes) as a bicycle (or a tricycle) equipped with fully operable pedals, a seat or saddle for the use of the rider, and an electric motor not exceeding 750 continuous watts.

Class 3

Bikes equipped with a motor that provides assistance only when the rider is pedaling.  It stops when the electric bicycle reaches the speed of 28 mph.
