1 year agoBecause, as I walk through the city, it is 10x more common to find an e-scooter blocking the sidewalk than an SUV?
Or, maybe, because SUVs do not go at 25kph in walking areas?
I can absolutely agree with this…
to be clear about what’s a real problem, and what’s not. (…) Pick up trucks and monster SUVs are
-the-a problem and we need a public debate about those 3-4% biggest cars, the space they claim and the danger they pose.
EDIT: My city has specific, identified and plenty spaces for e-scooters. Either the rental e-scooters break down (too) frequently, or (some of!) the users of those are assholes that abandon them at random.
Can you explain a bit better on the magnitude of these differences and why they exist? Thx
