Of these accidents, 71 involved bicycles, 66 involved motorised personal mobility devices, 13 involved power-assisted bicycles and 15 involved personal mobility aids. Some accidents involved more than one type of device. Other incidents might not be reported and were typically resolved between affected parties.
2. The government does not collect data on civil suits filed by pedestrians against active mobility device users or compensations.
