TV Presenter Emily Hartridge Dies in a Road Accident

TV presenter and popular YouTuber, Emily Hartridge was involved in an unfortunate incident as the lady passed away in an electric scooter crash. Her e-scooter collided with a lorry at a roundabout in Battersea, south-west London in Britain.

According to a report in The Guardian, the 35-year-old was one of the first waves of social media stars, becoming famous seven years ago for her “Ten Reasons Why ...” videos that took a comic look at modern life.

After gaining 3m views a month, she began presenting TV shows including 4OD’s Oh Sh*t I’m 30 and interviewed actors including Eddie Redmayne and Hugh Jackman.

The information was passed on through her Instagram account-

Police have been investigating the scene of the crash at Queen’s Circus roundabout, which was redesigned in 2015 to keep cyclists separated from other traffic. The new layout has been criticized as being confusing and last year a cyclist died after being hit by a bin lorry.

It is illegal to ride an e-scooter – or a Segway, Go-Ped or powered unicycle – on public roads in the UK as they are not considered to be roadworthy vehicles. Yet millions of people ride them in cities across Europe and the US, and growing numbers of e-scooters have been sold in the UK, prompting the government to review the law.

On Monday, transport minister Michael Ellis is due to meet Halfords and scooter share firms Lime, Bird and B Mobility to warn them that they must tell consumers about the law before they buy or hire an e-scooter.

May Emily's soul rest in peace.
