Two people die after a head-on collision involving an e-scooter and a bicycle on New York City’s Queensboro Bridge, reports from multiple outlets say. The crash occurs Thursday morning on the bridge’s bike path/bike lane, where an e-scooter rider traveling in one direction collides with a cyclist moving in the opposite direction. Police describe the e-scooter rider as operating a standup scooter. ABC News and Global News report that both the scooter rider and the cyclist die as a result of the crash. The New York Times adds that the scooter involved is an e-scooter that is not legally allowed to be used on New York City streets, citing legal restrictions on certain scooter types. The outlets agree on the basic facts: the location is the Queensboro Bridge, the vehicles are an e-scooter and a bicycle, the collision is head-on, and two people die. Details on the circumstances leading up to the crash, such as speed or whether either rider faced any mechanical issues, are not provided in the excerpts.
