by the Journal of the American Medical Association Surgery, the number of electric scooter injuries2017 to 2018. In 2014, when the research began, 582 injuries among millennials were reported to the US National Electronic Injury Surveillance System. In 2018, that number skyrocketed to 5,309. As the Guardian, the majority of the injuries took place in cities.
Of course, all of this is to be taken in jest—I don’t want anyone, but especially Jezebel readers, to die after failing to nail a sick wheelie—so if you are going to ride an e-scooter at an inexplicably fast speed, wear a helmet. I’m not your mother. Let this generation be known for something other than falling off of e-scooters and bashing our heads into the pavement.
