Electric or hybrid cars are more likely to hit pedestrians than diesel or gasoline powered cars, a new study has found.The research, published in the Journal of Epidemiology & Community Health, found that while the more environmentally friendly cars are good for the planet, they pose more of a safety hazard. This is largely because they are quieter. They pose a danger in urban areas, particularly where there is more background noise.
Overall, the researchers concluded that electric and hybrid vehicles were twice as likely to be involved in these accidents.'More pedestrians are injured in Great Britain by petrol and diesel cars than by electric cars, but compared with petrol and diesel cars, electric cars pose a greater risk to pedestrians and the risk is greater in urban environments,' the authors wrote in the study.
