A Tesla Cybertruck reportedly exploded in front of the Trump Hotel in Las Vegas, leading to an ongoing police investigation. Initial reports suggested an issue with the Cybertruck's battery pack, referred to as “cell dent,” but there's no direct link to the explosion. Elon Musk later clarified that the explosion was due to fireworks or a bomb in the truck bed, unrelated to the vehicle itself. The incident resulted in one death and several injuries, and speculation about a potential act of terror remains unconfirmed.

Recent changes in California's e-bike regulations redefine the three-class system, impacting the legality of throttle-enabled e-bikes. Class 1 and 3 e-bikes are now prohibited from having throttles that function independently of pedaling, except for a minimal speed throttle. This law alters how e-bikes are marketed and sold, potentially affecting manufacturers' strategies. The legal landscape for e-bike riders in California is shifting, with potential implications for future legislation and enforcement.
