Abstract
Electric scooters (e‐Scooters) are a form of motorized vehicle that offers cheap, efficient and environmentally friendly transportation. Increased e‐Scooter utilization has been accompanied by increases in e‐Scooter related injuries in multiple countries. This project describes the incidence, injury pattern, injury severity and patient factors associated with e‐Scooter use from the Western Australian State Trauma Registry.
