I love riding mine to the metro and home each day for my commute. No ban will stop me.


There is not going to be any ban on scooters. Nor should there be.


Ban on sidewalks


No. There should be good, safe bike/scooter lanes everywhere. But until that happens, people need to be able to ride scooters (and bikes) on the sidewalk.

I think all of the online cyclist nut jobs give everyone else on a bike a bad name. Literally no one cared. They just went around me without comment or incident like a normal person does.

The scooter people kind of worried me a bit because they go very fast, are pretty reckless and and not typically the kind of people you would think would have good balance and reflexes.


Only a55holes park in bike lanes. Cyclists get runover because they have to go around your lazy a55. Stop acting so put upon to not park in bike lanes.


Nah, I don’t plan to change. Sucks for you

Is a scooter a BIKE? No.

Therefore they have no place in BIKE lanes.


I don't know if there is a difference. Both have two wheels. Does DC define what a bike is?


Don’t even try to reason with an idiot like that. Scooters are fine in bike lanes.


This is DC. Nobody enforces anything. You can park your SUV in a bike lane.

That is exactly where I parked by SUV to pick up my new framed canvases from Framebridge on 14th street a few weeks ago. It was perfectly fine. Didn’t kill anyone.


Yep. Nice to have a spot to idle with your hazard lights on. Weak bikers in their nuthugger shorts won’t do a thing about it.

Anybody can do anything in bike lanes. You can walk or jog or ride scooters or skateboards or whatever. No one is going to stop you.


If you’re walking or jogging or on a scooter or skateboard in the bike lane I will run your ass over if you’re not keeping pace. I guess that might stop you, hmmmm?


Hey, it’s a tough guy, everybody. Look out. He’s in his bike shorts.


Heh
