On Monday at about 5pm, a 40-year-old man crashed his electric scooter (e-scooter) at the intersection of University Boulevard and Main Street in Mawson Lakes, a suburb north of Adelaide. No other vehicles were involved in the crash. The rider was taken to hospital in critical condition after the accident. Local police closed surrounding roads while they processed the scene and are investigating the circumstances of the incident. This news follows another recent e-scooter fatality in Salisbury, where a 36-year-old man died last year when his scooter hit a truck during his commute to work.
