Comment on Catch-22 on e-bike, e-scooter insurance as enforcement looms by commuter_reducing_traffic

In reply to Ed. The practical impact of that import ban was to run prices up for all cars by shrinking supply. It also causes more waste to be created overall as new cars are manufactured, as opposed to giving perfectly well-maintained, efficient, but slightly older Japanese imports a new lease on life. A cynic might say it keeps the new car dealerships busy, too.
