Common Causes of E-bike Accidents

e-bike accidents share many common causes with traditional bicycle accidents, but some unique factors arise due to the electric nature and increased speeds of e-bikes.

That said, common causes include motorist errors such as:

  • Motorists not yielding the right of way  
  • Mechanical failures, such as battery issues or brake malfunctions
  • Poor road conditions and obstacles  

Rider errors can also lead to accidents. These include losing control due to excessive speed, riding recklessly, or even riding e-bikes while intoxicated.
