The article “E-bike Fires Prompt Federal Law for Safety” reports on recent incidents involving electric bicycles catching fire, which has led to concerns over their safety. According to the article, a federal law has been proposed to address these safety issues and prevent future e-bike fires.
The article highlights the case of a woman in the Bronx whose e-bike caught fire while charging in her apartment, causing significant damage. This incident is just one of many reported cases of e-bike fires across the country, leading to calls for stricter regulations and safety measures.
