What Areas Should Ebike Riders Avoid for Safety’s Sake?

Navigating the streets on an ebike is all about safety smarts! Remember, you're sharing the road with cars, and as my dad used to say, two objects can't occupy the same space at the same time. Translation: if you tango with a car, you're gonna lose! So, how do you steer clear of trouble zones?

First off, when rolling up to an intersection packed with cars, avoid pulling up beside them. Why? Because some might make surprise turns, and you don't want to be caught in their blind spot.

Next, keep your distance when cruising behind cars, especially near gas stations or store entrances. Ride off their back bumper and stay vigilant for sudden turns. Drivers can change their minds quicker than you can say "e-bike," so be prepared to hit the brakes.
