I've never heard of an e-bike or a scooter killing someone.

Happens a couple of times a year here in Ireland. Usually an old and frail pedestrian and a teen recklessly driving a very powerful (i.e. illegal or should-be-illegal) e-scooter.

To be fair, that's an illegally-modified, illegally-on-the-road e-bike; not exactly the stock device.

		I’m pretty sure most non-rental e-bikes in London are ones that are illegal to have on the road.

It has happened several time in the last few years in Norway and UK. Most were the riders themselves but at least once in Norway it was a pedestrian.

It's rare but not unknown.

What is your definition of an e-bike "killing someone"? What will you accept as evidence?
