As electric vehicles (EVs), scooters, and e-bikes become more common on the streets of Los Angeles, so do the accidents involving them. If you or a loved one were injured in a crash involving an electric scooter, e-bike, or electric car, you need legal representation from a firm that understands these modern cases. LA Injury Lawyers is at the forefront of micromobility injury litigation in Los Angeles. We fight for maximum compensation with urgency, clarity, and confidence.

These Accidents Are Growing Across Los Angeles

The rise in electric vehicle and scooter usage across LA has introduced new hazards to pedestrians, cyclists, and drivers alike.

Types of E-Vehicle and Micromobility Crashes

  • Collisions between e-scooters and motor vehicles

  • E-bike riders struck in traffic

  • Tesla and other EVs causing crashes due to Autopilot malfunction

  • Pedestrians hit by scooters or e-bikes on sidewalks

  • Riders injured by faulty equipment or unsafe road conditions

Why the Surge in These Accidents?

  • Massive adoption of rideshare scooters (Bird, Lime, Lyft)

  • High usage in tourist areas like Santa Monica, Hollywood, and Downtown LA

  • LA’s limited scooter infrastructure and unsafe roads

  • Increased presence of EVs and self-driving cars without updated traffic regulation

The city has not fully adapted to the new wave of micromobility transportation. As a result, accident rates have surged in places like Santa Monica (90403), Hollywood (90028), and Westwood (90024).

Beyond riders, pedestrians and drivers alike are now facing new challenges navigating intersections shared with silent, fast-moving electric devices. The increase in multi-modal traffic heightens the risk of collision, confusion, and injury.

Who's Legally Responsible for an E-Vehicle Accident?

Establishing liability in electric vehicle and scooter cases can be complex. Multiple parties may be at fault, including:

Negligent Drivers

Drivers who fail to yield, drive distracted, or violate traffic laws can cause serious harm to e-vehicle riders and pedestrians.

Rideshare and Scooter Companies

Bird, Lime, and other companies may be liable if their equipment malfunctions or if they fail to properly maintain their fleet. Their user agreements and insurance policies often try to minimize liability, but we know how to challenge them.

Product Manufacturers

Defects in EVs or scooters, including battery fires or software errors (e.g., Tesla Autopilot crashes), may result in product liability claims. We consult with technical experts to prove product failure caused your injuries.

Government Agencies

Poorly maintained roads, potholes, and lack of bike lanes may place liability on the city or state. In these cases, filing deadlines are much shorter—making quick legal action critical.

Let LA Injury Lawyers investigate every possible angle. We act fast to preserve evidence and identify all liable parties.

Injuries Common in Micromobility & Electric Vehicle Accidents

These crashes can result in severe, life-altering injuries, especially for unprotected riders or pedestrians.

  • Traumatic brain injuries

  • Spinal cord damage and paralysis

  • Broken bones and fractures

  • Road rash and severe skin abrasions

  • Internal injuries

  • Long-term disability

Even low-speed e-scooter collisions can result in serious injuries due to lack of protection and unsafe riding surfaces. Victims often face long recovery times, chronic pain, and emotional trauma.

In many cases, these injuries require months or even years of treatment, rehabilitation, and therapy. Victims deserve full compensation.

Steps to Take After an Electric Scooter or EV Accident

If you’ve been injured in a micromobility accident, your actions in the first 24 hours are critical.

  1. Get Medical Help Immediately – Even if the injuries seem minor, see a doctor.

  2. Document the Scene – Take photos of the vehicle, injuries, road, and surroundings.

  3. Collect Witness Information – Names, numbers, and any relevant videos.

  4. Report the Incident – File a police report and request a copy.

  5. Do Not Speak to Insurance Companies Alone – Anything you say can be used against you.

  6. Contact LA Injury Lawyers – We step in fast and begin building your case immediately.

These steps not only protect your health but strengthen your legal claim. Waiting too long can give insurers or defense attorneys room to dispute your case.

What Compensation Can You Recover?

Victims of EV and scooter crashes may be eligible for substantial financial compensation.

  • Emergency and long-term medical bills

  • Lost income and reduced future earning capacity

  • Pain and suffering

  • Emotional distress and PTSD

  • Rehabilitation and therapy costs

  • Damaged property (e.g., bike, phone, clothing)

We pursue the maximum compensation allowed under California law, not just the first offer. That includes future costs you may not have anticipated—like mobility equipment, vocational training, and mental health support.

Our legal team also works with economists and doctors to project long-term damages, especially in cases involving catastrophic injuries

Self-Driving Cars and Autonomous Vehicle Accidents

California is one of the leading states testing and deploying autonomous vehicle (AV) technology. But with innovation comes risk—and accidents involving self-driving cars are on the rise in Los Angeles. If you’ve been injured by a vehicle operating in Autopilot mode or controlled by advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS), you may be facing a legal gray area.

This also includes injuries caused byautonomous taxi services now operating in parts of California. Companies like Waymo, Cruise, and Zoox are testing or actively using self-driving taxi fleets on city streets. These vehicles often operate without a human driver, making accident claims more complex.

Our firm has experience navigating this rapidly evolving space. We know how to pursue claims against major automakers, software providers, autonomous taxi services, and negligent AV operators.

Common Scenarios Involving Autonomous Vehicles:

  • Tesla Autopilot collisions with other vehicles
  • Pedestrians struck by AVs that failed to detect them
  • Rear-end collisions caused by autonomous braking errors
  • Self-driving test vehicles operating without safety drivers
  • Accidents involving driverless taxis making unsafe decisions

Determining liability can be complex when a machine, not a human, is in control. That’s why you need a legal team that understands both the legal and technical dimensions of these cases. We work with engineers and crash analysts to uncover what went wrong—and who should pay.

If you were injured in an accident involving a self-driving car or autonomous taxi, call LA Injury Lawyers today. We’re prepared to take on manufacturers, insurers, and third-party AV operators to fight for your full compensation.
