E bike or E scooter

So I live in Victoria, Australia and they have done a massive crackdown on E-bikes, not sure about E scooters. The limit is 250W for an e-bike and that's only 25km/h.

I would be using it for travel going between 10-20 km distance. I was going to get an e-bike but then got put off by how seriously they are taking them.

Does anyone have any suggestions?
