An Amazon delivery worker, 34-year-old Babak Fordaliah, is reported to have been stopped and charged after driving an e-bike described as illegally modified for higher speed. According to the accounts provided, the bicycle is alleged to have been altered so its motor could deliver performance beyond what is permitted for standard electric bikes. The reports say officers found that the motor had been “doctored,” indicating tampering intended to increase speed and potentially make the vehicle unsafe for roads.
Both items describe the incident as involving a “70mph” capability attributed to the modified e-bike, and they frame it as part of broader concerns about illegal e-bike modifications on public roads. However, the sources provided do not include details such as where the stop occurred, the specific legal charges, court dates, or whether there were any injuries or collisions linked to the rider’s vehicle. The information therefore focuses on the alleged modification and the individual’s identification following the stop.
