A group of New Yorkers mowed down by reckless e‑bikers will sue the Mamdani administration — accusing the mayor of letting the growing menace to pedestrians run wild. The lawsuit against Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s administration, expected to be filed Thursday, will target Hizzoner’s March executive order that stopped enforcement of minor e-bike violations — a policy critics say has turned city streets into a Wild West where pedestrians and everyday cyclists take their life into their own hands. “No mayor has the power to suspend the laws the City Council and state Legislature passed to keep New Yorkers safe – yet that is exactly what this directive does, turning our sidewalks and crosswalks into a lawless free-for-all,” said Jim Walden, chair of NYC Common Sense, which will file the suit alongside crash victims and City Councilman Frank Morano (R-State Island).
