I've never heard of an e-bike or a scooter killing someone.
- ninalanyon 1y agoIt has happened several time in the last few years in Norway and UK. Most were the riders themselves but at least once in Norway it was a pedestrian. It's rare but not unknown.

- zimpenfish 1y agoTo be fair, that's an illegally-modified, illegally-on-the-road e-bike; not exactly the stock device.
- iamacyborg 1y agoI’m pretty sure most non-rental e-bikes in London are ones that are illegal to have on the road.
- beAbU 1y agoHappens a couple of times a year here in Ireland. Usually an old and frail pedestrian and a teen recklessly driving a very powerful (i.e. illegal or should-be-illegal) e-scooter.
- ranger_danger 1y agoWhat is your definition of an e-bike "killing someone"? What will you accept as evidence?
