Parents: E-bikes are not toys.

In Orange County, e-bike injuries among children treated at CHOC have surged from just a single case in 2021 to 201 in 2025 — a staggering 20,000% increase. These injuries are now the leading cause of trauma visits to CHOC’s trauma center.

Children are not invincible. E-bikes and E-Motorcycles are motorized vehicles capable of causing life changing injuries or even death. Always make sure your child is wearing a properly fitted helmet. One decision today can save a life tomorrow.

Ride like your life depends on it. Because it does.

June is National Safety Month!

E-bikes are fun and make getting around easier, but they’re heavier and faster than regular bikes. That means less time to react, slow down or stop, and a greater chance of losing control. If your teen rides an e-bike, a regular bike helmet might not protect them at these speeds. Choose a helmet with extra coverage, thick padding, a strong shell and increased impact protection such as MIPS to help reduce the risk of brain injury.

💡DYK: In California, riders under 18 must wear a helmet on all bikes.
