Sunshine Coast Drives Awareness for Safer Use of E-Scooters and E-Bikes

Education and Enforcement for E-Scooter and E-Bike Safety

Sunshine Coast authorities are ramping up efforts to address safety concerns around e-scooters and e-bikes. Collaborating with schools, health services, and community groups, the local police aim to reduce incidents through education and enforcement. Over 3,730 infringements have been issued this year, with helmet violations being the most common offense.

Upcoming safety days in Coolum and Noosa will feature expert presentations and practical training to promote responsible riding. Authorities stress the importance of wearing helmets, adhering to speed limits, and following rules to prevent injuries, especially during the festive season.

Sunshine Coast University Hospital reports frequent injuries among teenagers, often due to speeding and risky behavior. Parents are urged to educate children about safe riding practices and ensure devices comply with regulations.

Community members are encouraged to attend the safety events for valuable insights and resources to keep riders and pedestrians safe.
