E-Bikes in Crisis Across Michigan
Description
A tragic e-bike collision in Ferndale has sparked a nationwide safety crisis, prompting cities like Dearborn Heights and Grosse Pointe Woods to ban e-bikes entirely. Doctors report a surge in severe head injuries and fractures, especially among young riders, as e-bikes accelerate to 30 mph and become unstable on rough terrain. Medical experts are pushing for mandatory helmets and redesigned bikes to curb future tragedies — and for now, the safest advice? Wear a helmet and check local laws.
