The rider, a 15-year-old boy, was taken to hospital with serious injuries, while the driver of the other vehicle remained at the scene.

The crash comes a day after a 13-year-old was also badly injured in Maple Ridge when an Audi pulling into traffic collided with the teenager riding an e-scooter.

Police in Abbotsford, B.C., have also issued a warning to riders after two teens were caught driving an e-dirt bike at speeds reaching 55 kilometres an hour and weaving through traffic before they were stopped by an officer.

Abbotsford police say BC Children’s Hospital has reported 81 e-bike- or e-scooter-related visits to its emergency department in the year between April 2025 and ending in March 2026. 

That number is more than double the 37 visits reported for similar emergency visits in the previous year.
