[quote=Anonymous]I don't mind them at all. I've used them a couple times and they are a fantastic "last mile" solution. That said, they are also remarkably dangerous if the riders do not exercise care. The higher center of gravity makes them especially vulnerable to crashes due to objects in the roadway, potholes, or sidewalk cracks/bumps. You can also be subjected to a serious head or spinal injury, including TBI, paralyzation, or death. And, again, riders need to exercise caution. Utilize bike lanes as much as possible to keep the scooter away from cars and pedestrians. Go slow on sidewalks. All of this is common sense, but some individuals can't seem to control themselves. However, I think these people would be similarly reckless on a bicycle. [/quote]
