Powered Micromobility on the Edge: The Reality of Critical Interactions with Other Road Users

Résumé

The growing popularity of electric personal vehicles has led to new challenges and an increase in accidents. This study aims to analyze risky situations among e-scooter and e-monowheel users by examining perceived, observed and measured data to gain a comprehensive understanding of safety issues. Over two months in the South region of France, the daily trips of 25 e-scooter and 5 e-monowheel drivers were recorded using smartphones, including vehicle dynamics data and video footage. The participants could report critical events in real-time. The exper-iment recorded 1559 trips and 115 critical events. Most interactions occurred on the road, involving motorists and pedestrians, often at intersections and during daylight. Drivers attributed responsibility as follows: 20% to themselves, 65% to others, and 15% shared, with 9% of traffic offenses reported. Causes primarily revolved around non-compliance with traffic regulations, failure to signal driving intentions, and right-of-way violations. Video and measured data accurately cap-tured 80% of events, with 77% of them matching the declared emergency maneu-vers, typically hard braking and/or avoidance. 10% of the critical events were classified as very serious and 21% as serious. Some differences emerged be-tween e-scooter and e-monowheel users’ critical events. Similar naturalistic driv-ing studies in Lyon and Paris will provide valuable additional data.
