A 16-year-old electric bicycle rider was moderately injured Monday evening in Tiberias after colliding with a car on A.Z. Werner Street. Magen David Adom reported receiving a call at 19:25; medics treated the teen at the scene for a head injury and evacuated him to Rambam Health Care Campus.
Electric bicycle and scooter accidents remain a recurring road-safety issue across Israel. The Zioneer has covered several similar incidents this month in Lod, Kiryat Malakhi, near Jaljulia, Afek Junction, and Rahat, all involving riders sustaining moderate injuries — mostly teens and young adults — in collisions with vehicles or falls. The incidents highlight ongoing concerns about e-bike safety, helmet use, and infrastructure on local streets.
Tiberias saw no other reported e-bike crash today. The scene has been cleared.
