Encinitas, CA personal injury attorney Jeffrey Padilla talks about what you should do if someone hits you on your E-bike. He advises that, as with any accident, it is important to gather as much information as possible while at the scene, provided it is safe to do so. This includes taking photographs, collecting details about the other driver, and noting information about the vehicle involved.

He also emphasizes that individuals should be aware of the protections offered by their own auto insurance policies. For those who own a vehicle with bodily injury coverage for uninsured or underinsured motorists, this coverage can provide protection in situations such as hit-and-run accidents or when the other driver lacks sufficient insurance. Many people are unaware that this coverage may apply even if they are on a bicycle or an e-bike at the time of the incident.
