Common Causes of Electric Bicycle Accidents
E-bike accidents can occur due to various factors, many of which involve negligence on the part of another party. Some of the most common causes of these accidents include:
- Driver Negligence: Many e-bike accidents are caused by inattentive, distracted, or reckless drivers who fail to yield to cyclists or misjudge their speed.
- Road Hazards: Potholes, debris, and poorly maintained roadways can cause e-bike riders to lose control and crash.
- Defective E-Bikes: A malfunctioning battery, faulty brakes, or other product defects can lead to serious accidents and injuries.
- Pedestrian and Cyclist Collisions: In crowded areas, e-bike riders may be involved in crashes with pedestrians or other cyclists.
- Dooring Accidents: Drivers or passengers opening car doors into the path of an oncoming e-bike can cause severe injuries.
If another party’s negligence caused your accident, you may have a valid personal injury claim. Our team at Noonan & McMahon, LLC will investigate your case thoroughly to determine liability and hold the responsible party accountable.
Injuries Sustained in Electric Bicycle Accidents
Due to the lack of physical protection for riders, e-bike accidents often result in serious injuries, including:
- Traumatic brain injuries (TBI)
- Spinal cord injuries
- Broken bones and fractures
- Internal organ damage
- Road rash and lacerations
- Soft tissue injuries
These injuries can lead to extensive medical bills, lost wages, and long-term suffering. Our legal team will fight for full and fair compensation to cover all damages related to your accident.
Who Can Be Held Liable for an E-Bike Accident?
Determining liability in an electric bicycle accident requires a careful analysis of the circumstances surrounding the crash. Potentially liable parties may include:
- Negligent Drivers: If a motorist’s careless actions caused the accident, they may be held responsible for your injuries.
- Manufacturers: If your e-bike had a defective part that contributed to the accident, the manufacturer may be held accountable under product liability laws.
- Property Owners or Municipalities: If hazardous road conditions caused your accident, the entity responsible for maintaining the road may be liable.
- Other Cyclists or Pedestrians: If another cyclist or pedestrian acted negligently and caused the crash, they could be held responsible.
At Noonan & McMahon, LLC, we will identify all liable parties and pursue the maximum compensation possible for your case.
