I live in the Moorestown NJ area, These kids around here have NO REGARDS FOR TRAFFIC, I have seen them weaving in and out of traffic blowing through Stop signs, Hell one was riding a wheelie in traffic turning into the Moorestown Mall, I actually think the Police need to start cracking down on this behavior and the PARENTS need to be HELD ACCOUNTABLE!
I am sorry a lost of a life I am hoping that hits home for parents that have their children riding E-bike to pay attention on the road and not think they are immoral
The Laws Not about the E-Bikes The Laws Are Communist Leftist Take More Of Your Money Laws .Remember Thousands of E-Bike Riders Vote 🗳
seriously they dont stop at all
so as usual kids with no knowledge of the road without test and a driver license just play around like a child would and this is why they keep coming up with new laws on e bike to ruined it for people like myself that knows the rules the laws on road safety
FOX HATES E-BIKES! E-MOTOS ARE NOT E-BIKES!!
Finally
I ride a EUC and scooter to work…rip young man. Gear and hi vis and ride safe.
time to start passing laws now, before more teenagers end up dead. licensing, plates, insurance, registration, and age limits.
Probably wasn't wearing a helmet either
Another Darwin award handed out. 🥳🥳 whos next!?
Music to my ears. Ignorant e-biker = instant karma = death
Another day. Another e-bike disaster with a child. Poor UPS driver was just minding his business, trying to do his job. Kid probably came out without looking, not stopping. I see it ALL the time. Prayers to the family.
I just saw 2 young girls yesterday speeding thru my neighborhood going at least 30 mph. No helmets or regard for traffic rules. Adults are no better. When in a car you can’t see these e bikes or scooters until it’s too late. Condolences to the family and sorry for the driver to have to endure this.
Esos chicos no se detienen y se van en luz roja.Por culpa de ellos muchos conductores pierden su licencia CDL
Again!
Sorry but not sorry. I saw ebikes ran red lights as if it's their own street. These bikers don't use trafic rules
I commute everyday on my e-MTB. I wear all the tools and safety gears plus years of experience on pedal bike before going electric. Number one rule, always assume you're invisible to all road users..
Ohh okay WHATEVER
every state needs that law 17+ ins so on
The icey truck was at my school and the boy who got hit Is his son
Shouldn’t let kids ride them
These stupid kids shouldn't be allowed to own ebikes. Ban everyone under 18 from owning one.
Classify those dirt e bikes as motorcycles, off-road use only. Sell only to those over 21 years of age
And for those that insist on riding illegally/recklessly, prosecute as adult
Something needs to be done
How much revenue is estimated to be potentially available from fining the parents for traffic violation?
A new way to die. Just what we needed.
Maybe, if the government spent more time and money educating the public on safe opperation, rather than preying on the ignorance of the masses with fines and fees this wouldn't be an issue… but, for profit policing is sooo damned profitable.
That street reporter looks so completely brainwashed and mean NGL
bet it wasnt the driver f ault
Darwin is killing it this year
Children riding bicycles colliding with cars have always been a serious issue long before e-bikes. I bet there has been a child death today somewhere in the U.S. involving a non-powered bicycle. It won’t make national headlines because it isn’t a controversial event attracting huge social media views. It’s sad that controversy clouds the central concern for our children’s’ safety on the streets.
You people are horrible lousy humans. First forgetting a kid lost their life. But using it as a platform for something that could have easily just as much been a bicycle or skateboard. It was an accident. Please some of you grow a conscience or crawl back under your rocks.
RIP
There's the more justification for the upcoming e-bike ban without registration this July!
Too bad it didn't come soon enough!
Tragically lost his life or stupidly lost his life?
Prayers for the U P S truck
This is what I have noticed, I see ebikes everyday on the road (the ones with pedals), getting people around that need to go to point A to B. They are ussually wearing a helmet and are doing about 15-20 mph most. Then I seen the kids 13-16 yrs old, on non – pedal moto electric bikes doing 30-45 mph with no helmet, running through lights and stop signs with a person on the back. Dont blame responsible adults who enjoy riding e-bikes for pleasure and excersie – becuase of irrisponsible kids. oh and yes, if you are a parent and buy a Surron for your kid to ride in the street, you should be held accountable.
Age restrictions are needed. No one under 21 permitted.
In other words police will be put on the spot for poor parenting .
The parents who allow their kids to have these bikes and scooters are 100% to blame. That sounds very harsh but it's true.
I hope the UPS driver is okay.
What insurance company is going to insure an e- bike for a 15-17 year old? If they do, it will be more than a regular car. A teenager who is only wearing a helmet and otherwise unprotected??? Don't think so.
Hmm oh I can see that wut wit those bikes are hard too a stir being part magnetized yeah I that collision seriously a guy could barely steal one by this delivery guy he crashed a lot n couldn't get far. understandable they could be the new tesla
Tragic. The UPS driver will be blamed by the company. That’s how they roll. I pray for everyone involved
Stupid kid stuff. I'm a cyclist and only ride on bike trails, I never ride in the street with traffic.
They even suddenly ride out in front of loaded semi-trucks.
RIP to the young man and prayers for the UPS driver as well, who will think about this incident every day going forward.
