Kids keep getting hurt and killed on e-bikes. Should parents be held responsible?

Traumatic injuries and deaths involving children on e-bikes are rising, prompting officials to implement varied regulations across the country, including prosecutors pursuing charges against parents and New York City issuing cease-and-desist notices to retailers. Experts note that these severe injuries are especially pronounced among young riders who tend to be unhelmeted. Advocates are calling for a unified national set of laws rather than relying on localized strategies.
