What Should E-Bike Riders Know About Safety?
Electric bicycles can travel faster than traditional bicycles, which may require riders to allow additional time to slow or stop. Riders should maintain a speed that is appropriate for the roadway and surrounding conditions. Staying alert can help cyclists recognize hazards before they become emergencies.
Protective equipment can help reduce injuries during a bicycle crash. A properly fitted helmet should be worn on every ride, while eye protection can help shield riders from debris, wind, and other hazards. Riders should also make sure their bicycle’s brakes, tires, lights, and other equipment are working properly.
Cyclists should use designated bicycle paths or safe riding areas when available and follow applicable traffic rules when traveling near vehicles. Extra caution is important around highway ramps, where vehicles may be entering or exiting at higher speeds. Riders should also remain visible and avoid sudden movements that could surprise nearby motorists.
