July 25, 2025 – Ventura County Sheriff's Office is urging everyone to prioritize safety while enjoying E-Bikes.

These bikes can offer fun and convenience, but it's crucial to ride them responsibly with the proper protection.

Key Safety Tips:

* Wear a Helmet: This is non-negotiable for all riders, especially kids. Helmets save lives and prevent serious injuries.

* Stay Alert: E-Bikes can be extremely dangerous if not used carefully. Always be aware of your surroundings.
