A bochur riding an electric bike was struck by a vehicle Sunday night at approximately 10:00 p.m. at the intersection of Old Nyack Turnpike and South Madison Avenue in Monsey.
Hatzoloh EMS and Ramapo Police responded to the scene and treated the victim. Despite the force of the collision, the bochur miraculously escaped serious injury.
Sources tell Monsey Scoop that the rider was wearing a helmet, which likely prevented far more severe injuries. The impact was significant enough to leave visible damage to the vehicle involved, underscoring the importance of proper safety gear.
No serious injuries were reported.
Parents, get your kids full motorcycles. They are much safer than scooters and ebikes. Proper gear, adherence to road rules, proper signals and lighting, all make them better.
