Delivery riders in Germany experience an average of 0.91 accidents per year. That is 910 accidents per 1,000 riders. Roughly 10% of those accidents happen due to a defective vehicle. These sobering statistics come from a recent study by the Technische Universität Dresden and Deutscher Verkehrssicherheitsrat (DVR) e.V. We supported this research to shed light on the everyday traffic hazards professional bike couriers face. At CYCLE, we believe vehicle safety means ensuring that hardware, fleet maintenance, and the operational ecosystem protect riders from day one. Safe, well-serviced commercial e-bikes are a necessity for professional operations - and we are proud to partner with industry leaders like Flink, Just Eat Takeaway.com, and foodora, who share this exact vision and prioritize the safety of their fleets every single day. 📈 Find the link to the full report in the comments below! 👇
