[quote=Anonymous]It would be great if they could include: - Every scooter should have a loud signal alert that the rider would have to use 10 feet or so ahead while approaching pedestrian. This would avoid any collision with pedestrians walking the same way as t he scooter who don't see a scooter coming and they could step in the way of the scooter unknowingly. That happens with bikes riding on sidewalks, especially kids assume a person has eyes in the back of the head. - This would probably eliminate any collision at all if: the scooter rider would be required to get off the scooter to pass a pedestrian on the sidewalk. - In places where sidewalks are not frequently used by pedestrians, one side of the street could be dedicated for scooters or mixed use and marked accordingly so people would have a choice to walk on the scooter free side and they would easily know which side is it.
