Understanding E-Bike and E-Scooter Accidents
Accidents can happen for many reasons, and liability can involve multiple parties. Potential causes include:
-
Collisions with motor vehicles
-
Defective equipment or mechanical failure
-
Dangerous road conditions or poorly maintained bike lanes
-
Negligent operation by other riders
-
Inadequate lighting or visibility
Determining fault in these cases often requires thorough investigation, which is why having an experienced attorney is critical.
Injuries From E-Bike and E-Scooter Accidents
Even low-speed e-bike or e-scooter accidents can result in serious injuries, including:
-
Fractures, broken bones, and joint injuries
-
Head trauma, concussions, and traumatic brain injuries
-
Road rash, lacerations, and bruising
-
Spinal injuries
-
Emotional trauma and anxiety
Prompt medical care and documentation are essential to protect your health and support your case.
Steps to Take After an E-Bike or E-Scooter Accident

Seek medical attention immediately to assess and treat injuries.

Call the authorities to file a police report if another party is involved.

-
Collect witness information including names, phone numbers, and statements.
