There have been over 200 battery fires from e-bikes and e-scooters this year alone according to New York’s Fire Department.

Now, the city is trying to figure out how to prevent these fires from happening.

But trying to do so without impacting the thousands of delivery workers that rely on these devices for a living is challenging.

So why are e-bike and e-scooter fires becoming a bigger problem? And what can be done to stop them?
