A 57-year-old Oshawa man was sent to hospital after rear-ending another vehicle on his e-bike.

On Nov. 23, officers from Central East Division were called to a rear-end motor vehicle collision involving a motor vehicle and an electric bike. A black and camouflage colour electric bike was westbound on Bond Street West when it collided with a blue Chevrolet Equinox, which was stopped on Bond Street West, waiting to turn right, providing right of way for a pedestrian walking on a sidewalk.

The 57-year-old operator of the electric bike was transported to Lakeridge Health Oshawa and treated for the non-life threatening injuries sustained in the collision. The 58-year-old driver of the Chevrolet Equinox was uninjured and remained at the scene of the collision cooperating with police in the investigation.
