What Are the Risks for E-Bike Riders at Intersections?
E-bike riders can face increased risks at intersections because they share space with vehicles moving in several directions. Drivers may not always notice a bicycle approaching from a side street, while riders can be less visible than larger vehicles.
Head injuries are among the concerns associated with bicycle crashes. A properly fitted helmet can help reduce the risk of serious head trauma, although it cannot prevent every injury.
Drivers can improve safety by checking carefully for bicycles before turning or crossing an intersection. E-bike riders can also reduce risks by following traffic signals, remaining visible, and watching for vehicles entering their path.
