However, riders frequently engage in aberrant behaviors, posing significant traffic safety concerns. Field observation combined with traffic conflict techniques offer an effective approach for identifying risky riding behaviors that significantly affect traffic safety. This study aims to address two major limitations in existing research that can lead to estimation biases: the unsystematic and incomplete inclusion of potential risky riding behaviors, and the insufficient consideration of unobserved heterogeneity in conflict data. Data on 437 e-bike\u2013motor vehicle conflicts were collected at four signalized intersections in Hefei, covering 21 variables including illegal, negligent, and error-prone riding behaviors, as well as sociodemographic factors. Appropriate conflict risk indicators were selected for straight-line and angle conflicts, respectively. A random parameters binary logit model with heterogeneity in means and variances (RPBL-HMV) was developed and compared against binary logistic and mixed logit models. The results indicate that the RPBL-HMV model provides a significantly better goodness-of-fit than the other two models. Six factors with fixed parameters are positively associated with high-risk conflicts, while two factors exhibit random parameters\u2014one of which decreases in mean when riders fail to slow down before turning. The identified risky behaviors and the corresponding targeted countermeasures offer practical insights for regulating unsafe e-bike riding and improving intersection safety.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/systems14010037","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,12,31]],"date-time":"2025-12-31T15:30:32Z","timestamp":1767195032000},"page":"37","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Investigating Risky Behaviors and Safety Countermeasures for E-Bike Riders in China: A Traffic Conflict Analysis Approach"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"14","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4737-4371","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Yikai","family":"Chen","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Automotive and Transportation Engineering, Hefei University of Technology, Hefei 230009, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Zhengbin","family":"Tao","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Automotive and Transportation Engineering, Hefei University of Technology, Hefei 230009, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Qunsheng","family":"Chen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Automotive and Transportation Engineering, Hefei University of Technology, Hefei 230009, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3752-4233","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jie","family":"He","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Transportation, Southeast University, Nanjing 211189, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Xiaobo","family":"Ruan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Automotive and Transportation Engineering, Hefei University of Technology, Hefei 230009, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Xiang","family":"Ling","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Automotive and Transportation Engineering, Hefei University of Technology, Hefei 230009, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,12,30]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"175","DOI":"10.1080\/15389588.2016.1228922","article-title":"Modeling faults among e-bike-related fatal crashes in China","volume":"18","author":"Wang","year":"2017","journal-title":"Traffic Inj.
