Should eBikes be governed the same way as cars or the same way as bicycles? Or maybe they need new rules?

No. I think this is a way that the "old guard" are trying to introduce barriers to access.
It also seems like insurance and motorcycle industry are trying to protect their stake in an emerging market.
I fully support sold ebikes being sold to standards, such as speed limits, battery safety and mirrors.
