The Detroit East Medical Control Authority, which oversees EMS in Detroit and several eastern suburbs, recorded 33 serious e-bike injuries requiring ambulance service through July. That's already more than the 21 in all of 2025, per WDIV . What they're saying: Michael Yusaf, an Auburn Hills orthopedic surgeon who has practiced for about 18 years, tells Axios he's seeing more e-bike and e-scooter injuries than he did five years ago. Injuries that were once rare now appear roughly weekly in his practice, although he doesn't track formal case counts.
