'Anarchy': Call for action over e-bike gangs in Sydney
A gang of teenagers on e-bikes have been captured hooning down streets and even a golf club on Sydney's Northern Beaches, sparking fears it's only a matter of time before there's another fatality.
Footage from Cronulla shows an electric mob on wheels charging down a main road.
Some do wheelies, while others hoon down the wrong side of the road before spilling onto a busy intersection.

Pedestrian Council of Australia chief executive Harold Scruby called it "anarchy".
On Sydney's Northern Beaches, a baby-faced e-bike gang stopped traffic at North Manly in more video.
Local Toby Martin called it "a fatality waiting to happen".
A teenage crew took their antics off road captured two days ago ripping up the greens at Long Reef Golf Club at Collaroy.
Martin believes it's only a matter of time before a pedestrian or e-bike rider dies.
"It's a highway to hell each way we look at it they're flying over golf course, roads in large packs each pushing each other on," he said.
Scrooby said parents could be liable, too.

"Parents have got to realise if they're children are riding unregistered uninsured motorbikes, they could be liable for any injuries sustained by people they either hit or if the pillion passenger comes off," he said.
"These things are just motorbikes dressed up as bicycles."
Legal e-bikes don't require registration or insurance, there's no age limit and riders don't need a licence.

In 2025, there were four deaths involving e-bikes prompting the NSW government to introduce new laws to reduce their legal power and speed.
"Every hour of every day, I'm worried about someone being injured and seriously injured or killed," Martin said.
