The number of bicycle accidents fell significantly last year, but many more people were involved in accidents with e-scooters.

About 6400 bicycle accidents until the end of November 2021

By the end of November, there were just under 6400 statistically recorded bicycle accidents, as the Senate responded to a parliamentary question. In 2020 and 2019, there were about 7900 accidents each. In the same period of 2021, 776 accidents with e-scooters were counted. In the previous year, there were 325 and in the second half of 2019 just under 300. The figures for the full year 2021 were not yet available.
