Electric scooters have become a popular, environment-friendly means of transportation as more companies continue to produce them to cater to commuters. But while these scooters are fun to ride and provide us with a more convenient option for getting around urban areas, they also present lots of potential risks to both riders and nearby pedestrians.
Since these electric scooters can be unstable due to their weight, and provide no bodily protection whatsoever, chances of electric scooter injuries become much higher. Additionally, since a large percentage of riders see these scooters as toys rather than a legitimate alternative to conventional transportation, they ride these vehicles at high speeds, with some riders opting not to wear helmets and other protective gear.
These acts of negligence endanger both riders and pedestrians, as they increase the likelihood of electric scooter accidents. Apart from the severe injuries and collateral property damage that are to be expected in most vehicular collisions, there have also been cases wherein scooter deaths have been reported because of the severity of the crash.
The risk of lime and bird electric scooter injuries are significantly increased by unsafe practices when riding these machines. California electric bike laws state that electric scooter riders are required to have any class of driver’s license and must obey the same traffic and safety rules and regulations as other vehicles. By not adhering to these laws, riders run the risk of hurting themselves and other road users. In the worst case scenario, electric scooter accidents can result in wrongful death.
Below is a list of irresponsible electric scooter practices:
If you are involved in an electric scooter accident, the one who pays for damages and other forms of compensation will depend on who was at fault.
Below are some scenarios you can take into account when if you ever get involved in an electric scooter crash and sustain physical injuries or property damage:
Electric scooter accidents can cause a handful of scooter deaths in a year. They also bring about a myriad of physical injuries. These include but are not limited to the following:
People who fall victim to electric scooter accidents and other vehicular crashes make the mistake of pursuing their claims on their own. Doing so would only put you in at a great disadvantage given that the party at fault might have more resources than you. Scooter manufacturer companies, for example, will employ insurance adjusters as well as seasoned defense lawyers to challenge your claim. Insurance adjusters will frustrate your claim while defense lawyers will try to exploit technicalities or loopholes in your case to keep their clients from being held liable and paying for damages. Additionally, these factors, coupled with your lack of knowledge of proper legal proceedings, may cause you to waive your charges unintentionally, thus getting little to no compensation. These circumstances make pursuing your case alone ill-advised as it may jeopardize the outcome.
