Amid a continued rise in popularity among electric bikes and scooters, Henderson and Clark County School District police are reminding residents of safety tips for young riders and the legal responsibilities parents and riders should know ahead of the upcoming school year.
From Jan. 1 to June 10, 2025, the Henderson Police Department responded to 23 traffic crashes that resulted in injury involving an e-bike, officials said in a press release Thursday. In that same time span, police said, nearly 30 percent of all automobile crashes with bicyclists that resulted in injury in the city involved an e-bike.
Since 2024, the Police Department’s Traffic Division has investigated two fatal crashes involving e-bikes.
The announcement comes as classes at CCSD schools begin Monday.
