Injury nature and body region were further categorised using ICD-10 codes. Multivariate logistic regression was used to assess the risk of specific injury types. We found that hospitalised E-biker injuries (n=323) accounted for 57.2% of road traffic hospitalisations over the 6-month study ...
Some studies have focused on crash characteristics [10], experience surveys [10,11] or riding behavior [12]. Others dealt with injury severity [1,13,14,15,16] or injury patterns occurring from E-bike accidents [9,13,14,15,16]. To date, only a few studies comparing E-bike related ...
The probability that two cyclists from opposite directions crash on an ordinary road is negligible. Therefore, encounter points between oncoming cyclists were excluded, except for bicycle-only infrastructures. As we exclusively focused on the population at risk we did not consider any further risk ...
Three empirical studies in the United States and Europe have focused rider behavior, crash data, and hospitalization data, and found that e-bike riders tend to behave very similarly compared to bicyclists in the U.S. [15]. They tend to have similar crash rates, except for slightly higher "...
