• Abstract: E-bikes have rapidly gained popularity as a sustainable form of urban mobility, yet their safety implications remain underexplored. This paper analyzes injury incidents involving e-bikes and traditional bicycles using two sources of data, the CPSRMS (Consumer Product Safety Risk Management System Information Security Review Report) and NEISS (National Electronic Injury Surveillance System) datasets. We propose a standardized classification framework to identify and quantify injury causes and severity. By integrating incident narratives with demographic attributes, we reveal key differences in mechanical failure modes, injury severity patterns, and affected user groups. While both modes share common causes, such as loss of control and pedal malfunctions, e-bikes present distinct risks, including battery-related fires and brake failures. These findings highlight the need for tailored safety interventions and infrastructure design to support the safe integration of micromobility devices into urban transportation networks.

We further formulate the crash event feature learning as a novel text reasoning problem and further fine-tune various large language models (LLMs) to predict detailed accident outcomes. Our experiments results show that our LLM-based approach not only predicts the severity of accidents but also classifies different types of accidents and predicts injury outcomes.
