I am seriously considering adding a motor to my bicycle. Wouldnt a paddle assist be the ideal mode of transportation for millions of NYC residents ? Dont need a car, uber, bus, subway for trips by yourself 5 miles or shorter. Can peddle for exercise and turn motor for big hills. Fits neatly into apartments.Environmentally friendly too.

Any bike where you can throttle or 'switch' on a motor is still illegal.

For how long ? If the city wants to lessen automobile traffic this is an option that has to be considered.

The mayor also wants to promote bike sharing and the MTA wants declining ridership to stop. I've no idea if/when the law will be relaxed but have my doubts on it ever happening.
