A 15-year-old girl is in critical condition following an e-scooter accident on Ogrodowa Street in Kie\u0142pin on Wednesday evening, July 15, after the vehicle struck a speed bump. <\/p>\n
On Wednesday, July 15, at approximately 8:00 PM, a serious accident involving an electric scooter occurred on Ogrodowa Street in Kie\u0142pin, West Warsaw County. Two teenagers, aged 14 and 15, were injured.<\/p>\n
Initial investigations indicate the two girls were riding the same e-scooter, neither wearing a protective helmet. The 14-year-old driver reportedly failed to notice a speed bump on the road, causing the pair to lose balance and fall onto the pavement with significant force after hitting the obstacle.<\/p>\n
The 14-year-old driver sustained relatively minor injuries. However, her 15-year-old passenger was severely injured, losing consciousness immediately after the fall. She was transported to a hospital in critical condition, with witnesses reporting a suspected head injury, potentially including a skull fracture.<\/p>\n
Three fire department units, an ambulance crew, and a police patrol were dispatched to the site. Firefighters secured the area while paramedics provided medical assistance. Police officers conducted an investigation to determine the exact circumstances and causes of the accident, during which time traffic on Ogrodowa Street was blocked.<\/p>\n
Local residents claim the speed bump has been a source of concern for some time. They have reportedly petitioned municipal authorities to remove the obstacle, arguing it poses a hazard to cyclists, e-scooter riders, and other road users, yet they have received no response for nearly a year.<\/p>\n
Authorities are currently investigating factors such as the speed of the scooter at the time of the crash. The incident serves as a reminder of the severe risks associated with e-scooter use, particularly regarding head injuries, prompting police to reiterate warnings about road safety, speed, and helmet use.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
