A tragic accident occurred around 7:10 p.m. when a 15-year-old motorcyclist and his 14-year-old passenger collided with a larger vehicle on the Liverpool-Parramatta T-Way near Restwell Road in Bossley Park.

According to authorities, the trail bike became ensnared beneath the bus after hitting its side.

Despite the quick response of paramedics, the two boys sadly succumbed to their injuries at the scene.

The 48-year-old bus driver, along with the passengers on board, were unharmed in the incident. The driver was subsequently taken to the hospital for routine testing.

Fairfield City Mayor Frank Carbone has openly criticized the use of unauthorized e-bikes and motorbikes on local roads, with a particular focus on their presence in the bus-exclusive T-Way corridor.

Officials confirmed that the bike involved in the collision was powered by petrol.

Carbone called on NSW Premier Chris Minns to act.

“This is what happens when the NSW State Government ignores repeated requests for action on illegal E-bikes and motor bikes, which have taken over our T-Way,” he said, on Facebook.

“My thoughts and prayers are with those who were hurt, and I sincerely hope they are okay.

“Chris Minns, enough of the media releases. It is time for action. Do your job, direct police to act, and respond to the repeated calls our community has been making before someone is seriously injured or worse.”

The NSW government moved last year to impose a 20km/h speed limit and 16-year age limit for e-scooters but didn’t include e-bikes in the changes.

At the time, Transport Minister John Graham said the government was acting because it recognised community concerns about device modification, fire risk, discarded shared e-bikes and poor rider behaviour.

“They’re known as ‘micro’ devices but e-bikes and e-scooters represent a major shift for our road and transport networks,” he said, in a statement.

“We believe a sensible set of rules will promote the health and lifestyle benefits of e-bikes and e-scooters while protecting the safety of riders and everyone else sharing the paths and roads with them.”
