Lawmakers, police, and doctors are advocating for new safety rules due to a rise in e-bike injuries, particularly among children. As more people ride e-bikes on roads and sidewalks, emergency rooms are seeing an increase in serious injuries. This surge has prompted calls for stronger safety regulations.

E-bike demand has grown significantly in recent years, with many riders using them for transportation and leisure. Some individuals, like Gabriel Phillips, use e-bikes for daily commutes and recreational activities.
