Show Notes
E-bike sales have surged, with over a million units sold in 2022, leading to a rise in accidents and fatalities. In Southern California, young riders often speed on sidewalks and paths, ignoring rules. Crash numbers have risen significantly, with California Highway Patrol data showing a jump from 48 in 2020 to 1366 in 2025 statewide. Law enforcement emphasizes education over punishment, as most young riders are unaware of the laws. Cities are implementing stricter regulations, and school districts are demanding safety courses and permits. The focus is on responsible use through training and enforcement to prevent further accidents.
