Are your kids riding an e-bike? 🚲⚡️ In California, not all e-bikes are the same, and understanding the classifications is critical for your family’s safety.
As a child injury attorney, I see too many preventable accidents. Whether your child is riding to school or meeting friends, knowing the law is the first step in protecting them. 🛡️
Here is the breakdown of California’s three e-bike classes:
⚡️ Class 1: Pedal-assist only. Stops at 20 mph.
⚡️ Class 2: Throttle or pedal-assist. Stops at 20 mph.
⚡️ Class 3: Pedal-assist only. Faster, up to 28 mph (16+ age restriction, helmet required).
Key Safety Tips for Parents:
✅ Helmets are non-negotiable: California law requires all riders under 18 to wear a helmet on ANY bike, motorized or not. For Class 3 bikes, helmets are mandatory for everyone.
✅ Check the class: Not all bikes are clearly labeled. Ensure your child knows how their specific bike operates.
✅ Road rules matter: E-bikes are subject to the same rules of the road as traditional bicycles. Ensure your child understands how to navigate traffic safely.
If your child has been injured in an e-bike accident due to someone else’s negligence, don’t face the legal hurdles alone. We’re here to help you understand your rights and hold responsible parties accountable.

Parents, take note: The rise in E-bike popularity among youth has unfortunately led to a concerning increase in accidents, often stemming from a lack of proper training and safety education. 🚲⚠️
In recent months, we have seen a significant shift in accountability—prosecutors are now actively charging parents with recklessness for the actions of their children on E-bikes. It is no longer just about buying the bike; it is about ensuring they know the rules of the road before they head out.
Don’t leave their safety—or your legal liability—to chance. Take the time to teach your children how to navigate E-bikes safely. Your friend, The Child Injury Attorney. Do you feel that perhaps someone else is to blame call The Child Injury Attorney for a free consultation . 📱Contact in BIO

From Badge to Bench to the Courtroom ⚖️
When your child is injured, you don’t just need an attorney you need someone who has seen the law from every possible angle.
My journey didn’t start in a law office. It started on the streets as a police officer, where I learned exactly how to gather the facts that matter. It continued on the bench as a judge, giving me a unique perspective on how cases are won and lost.
Today, I use that “know and know-how” for one purpose: fighting for your children. 🛡️
If your child has been injured, work with a legal advocate who understands the system inside and out.
I am Michael Wales, the Child Injury Attorney.

As a parent and an attorney, I see firsthand how quickly a fun afternoon can turn into a life-changing event. With E-Bikes becoming a staple in our community, it is more important than ever to understand the laws designed to keep our kids safe.
I recently dedicated an entire episode of my podcast to **E-Bike safety and regulations**. You can find it right now at **TheChildInjuryAttorney.com**.
The San Diego Police Department has clear guidelines that every family should review. Here are a few critical reminders for your young riders:
* **Helmets are the Law:** If you are under 18, a helmet is mandatory. No exceptions. It is the single most effective way to prevent a traumatic brain injury.
* **Age Matters:** Class 3 E-Bikes—which can hit speeds of 28 mph—are restricted to riders aged 16 and older. Make sure your child is on a bike they can legally and physically handle.
* **Rules of the Road:** An E-Bike is not a toy; it’s a vehicle. That means stopping at all signs, signaling turns, and riding with the flow of traffic.
* **Yield to Pedestrians:** Sidewalks and crosswalks belong to people on foot. Always give them the right of way.
My goal is to help you navigate these rules so we can prevent injuries before they happen. Head over to my website to listen to the full episode for a deeper dive into protecting your family.
Stay safe,
Michael Wales
