Molly Steinsapir, 12, was killed in a bicycle accident.
Kaye and Jonathan Steinsapir, who perished in an e-bike accident in 2021, were Molly’s parents. After considering the risk to other children, Molly’s parents filed a wrongful death lawsuit Monday against Rad Power Bikes, an e-bike manufacturer in Seattle.

Molly Steinsapir has now survived a traumatic biking accident
A teenager named Molly has perished in a horrific bicycle accident. When she received medical treatment at the hospital on January 31, 2021, the incident took place in 2021. Molly’s mother, Kaye, provided updates on her condition via Twitter after being accepted into the ‘UCLA.
Kaye pinned, “Molly was called back to God,” on Feb. 16, 2021. Their hearts were simultaneously broken in a way that felt damaged beyond repair. They find comfort in the thought that Molly’s twelve years may have been spent in love and joy. We are so grateful to be his parents.
Even Kaye responded to the statement, saying she was aware she was keeping an eye on us and smiling at her younger brothers Nate and Eli, as well as her cat Leroy and her dog Calvin. She also asked for donations for a children’s charity.
Even she begged us to help someone in need. On July 31, Kaye showed Nate her daughter’s photo. She talked about packing Nate for summer camp for two weeks and wondering if she should have doubled everything.
Molly loved camp, so her parents’ decision to only send one upsets her. But Molly still had a lot of life to live. So that doesn’t seem right. Molly’s mother spoke of another rough night on August 4.
Kaye suffered from insomnia, which worsened following her surgery and the filing of the complaint. It’s heartbreaking and causes them to revisit the worst-case scenario and the circumstances of Molly’s death. Now they know it was preventable. As similar incidents have been happening for years, they are taking action to prevent other children from using e-bikes.
What happened to Molly Steinsapir?
After receiving hospital treatment for several days, Molly died of a bicycle injury in 2021. Her parents are suing Red Power Bikes, the maker of the faulty e-bike that caused the accident.
While wearing helmets, Molly and her companion were riding the e-bike downhill when the accident happened. She was taken to hospital immediately after the incident by her boyfriend, who had asked for help. She received MRIs, blood transfusions and various surgeries to release the pressure in her head as part of the medical treatment, but died during the phase.
Molly hasn’t been able to wake up since Feb. 15, 2021, despite all sedatives being stopped, Kaye said. His EEG shows no movement. Tomorrow the doctors will do another examination.
Kaye said they’ll declare Molly no longer with us if she doesn’t respond. Please beg for a miracle with all your heart. The loss of her beloved daughter was announced the next day, which is every parent’s worst fear.
Aarav Shah, a toddler and high school student from New Jersey, was killed in an accident in Oklahoma on July 15, 2022, while on a cross-country bike ride.
Molly Steinsapir’s parents sued an e-bike company after her death
Following the loss of their 12-year-old daughter, Molly’s parents filed lawsuits out of concern for other children like her daughter. Kaye and Jonathan Steinsapir claimed in the lawsuit that e-bikes are made with design flaws and poorly ventilated for young people.
In Los Angeles County Superior Court, where Steinsapir filed the suit, they discussed the challenges runners face from many angles. They drew attention to flaws, including difficulty stopping and slowing down when the bike descends.
Even Kaye and Jonathan report that as they pulled the bike down the bike started to shake and wobble which led to an accident. The company should have been aware of the unstable outcome and flawed design. Rad Power Bikes never changed the bike after considering the safety of the invention.
Jonathan also mentioned the company providing inappropriate marketing for its e-bike business and said it failed to warn customers of the risks associated with their use.
A mother who suffered a broken rib and vertebrae in a Rad Power Bike accident a month ago due to faulty brakes has been interviewed by Molly’s family. Her 14-year-old daughter was nearby on a similar bike. She managed to survive the accident despite numerous injuries.
In this regard, in July, 11-year-old driver Millar Buchanan was killed in a motorcycle accident on the circuit while taking part in training at the Crail circuit in Scotland.
