Bikes require to keep balance. Powered wheelchairs do not.

you will find that most people use "bicycle" as a general term for basically anything of vaguely that shape and function.

no one (and i use that in the modern sense of "effectively no one", before you um ackshually me on that) says "cargo tricycle", they say "cargo bike" or "bakfiets", and bakfiets just means "cargo/box bike".

Yeah, three-wheeled bikes still count as bikes imo, they're much closer to being bikes than cars.

But I have nothing against powered wheelchair obviously, they aren't cars.
