In a recent study conducted by NYU Grossman School of Medicine, data reveals a concerning rise in severe injuries related to electric vehicles in the Detroit metro area.
The investigation analyzed 1,300 cases involving electric bikes and scooters, showcasing an alarming trend of serious brain and spinal injuries that require neurosurgical care.
Dr. Paul P. Huang, an associate professor in the Department of Neurosurgery at NYU Grossman School of Medicine and chief of neurosurgery at NYC Health + Hospitals/Bellevue, commented on the findings.
Dr. Huang emphasized the importance of improving urban infrastructure in response to the growing presence of electric vehicles in cities.
