"E-bike" mopeds more dangerous than motorcycles?

I've wanted to get one for a while but don't want to pony up the $$$. They're great around the beach area where I live where parking is sometimes difficult and it's easier than a car or regular bike and I can easily get to the bay for an easy ride. However, just about every kid in the area is flying around on their e bike with no sense of danger or responsibility (not surprisingly, of course). One high school kid rides his to school in a very heavily trafficked commercial area and it's gotta be so dangerous with how many reckless late to work and tired drivers there are.

I'm for them, definitely need to add some more regulation for the kids who ride them. I'm pretty sure one area in San Diego enacted a state of emergency for them because so many kids got wrecked on them.
