I hate them. The expectation that people on scooters have that other people on sidewalks will get out of their way drives me nuts. Just because they are on a motorized vehicle that enables them to move much faster than other pedestrians doesn't mean it's my job to leap out of the way when they want to zip by.

It's a motorized vehicle that could harm a pedestrian in a collision. It's worse than a non-electric bike on a sidewalk, IMO.

They' ride extremely fast on sidewalks and expect walkers to jump out of their way. I am scared every day because if I get hit I am going to be injured

How do you feel about cars? Are you scared every day because if a car hits you, you will be injured?

You've made your point. Enough.

Cars tend to stay off the sidewalks

How do they have zero impact on air quality?

The users hurt people.

Cars, you mean?

You're not wrong. But good luck.

Copenhagen, Helsinki have imposed new restrictions. London wants to require people to get licenses. I would love it if DC banned them outright. They are a menace.

While we’re at it, let’s ban cars too. They are a menace that kill tens of thousands of the living population and are making the planet unlivable for everyone that comes after.
