Short answer: yes. You can ride an e-bike on footpaths(Queensland, but) never faster than 12 km/h, and you must give way to pedestrians.
地点Speed and rules
Footpaths12 km/h maximum, at all times. Give way to pedestrians.
Shared pathsThe signed limit — but slow to 12 km/h when passing pedestrians. Keep left, ring your bell.
Separated pathsRide on the bike side only — never the pedestrian side ($172 fine).
Bikeways and bike lanesAllowed. Brisbane City Council allows up to 25 km/h on separated paths and bikeways.
RoadsMost roads are fine. Not on motorways or where “no bicycles” signs are installed.

Fines

  • Passing a pedestrian at over 12 km/h on a shared path: $518.
  • Not giving way to a pedestrian on a footpath or shared path: $172.
  • Riding on the pedestrian side of a separated path: $172.

Drivers and riders

Drivers must give riders at least 1 metre when passing(zones of 60 km/h or less. Riders still need a helmet everywhere, and must be 16+ with at least a learner licence except on recreational trails.) Licence rules.

Brisbane bikeways

Brisbane’s main bikeways — the Bicentennial, V1 Veloway, Kedron Brook 和 North Brisbane ——are shared or separated paths,so the 12 km/h passing rule applies whenever people are walking. Inside South Bank Parklands the limit is 10 km/h. E-biking(Brisbane).

This is a plain-English summary of the official rules, not legal advice. EbikeMate is an independent company, not a government service.
