This paper explores some potential hazards associated with electric vehicles and considers how the risks to users are mitigated by European Union and United Nations type-approval regulations. In doing so, it highlights any gaps m the regulations and the international efforts that are currently underway to close them. Vehicle hazards are the main focus for this work, and some consideration is given to the way they are likely to be used by the public. However, hazards relating specifically to infrastructure, such as vehicle charging or battery exchange are generally not included because they are likely to fall under a different regulatory framework.
