Electric bicycles have been around for decades, but the introduction of electric assist technology has made them more popular than ever before. These bikes are great for commuting, leisure, and exercise. However, with their increasing popularity comes an increase in accidents involving them.
One such accident is when a person is injured while boarding or alighting an electric (assisted) bicycle in a non-collision transport accident. This can happen in a number of ways, such as slipping on wet pavement, tripping over a curb, or losing balance while attempting to mount or dismount the bicycle.
When such an accident occurs, it is important to seek medical attention immediately. Even seemingly minor injuries can develop into serious health problems if left untreated. Common injuries in these accidents include sprains, fractures, and head injuries.
After seeking medical attention, it is important to report the accident to the appropriate authorities. This can include the police, your insurance company, and the manufacturer of the bicycle. Reporting the accident can help ensure that you receive the compensation you deserve and that steps are taken to prevent similar accidents in the future.

Make sure the bicycle is stable before attempting to mount or dismount it. Wear appropriate footwear with good traction. And always follow the manufacturer's instructions for use.
