I don't quite get it, since regular bikes are parked like that where I live, legally. I haven't seen piles yet.

- rahimnathwani 10y agoWhen you park your own bike, even a cheap one, you are somewhat careful about where you park it, because if someone knocks it over or moves it, it affects you directly. The same is not true of a Mobike or Ofo, so people are more likely to park inconsiderately (e.g. blocking the blind person's path, or the whole width of a narrow pavement). I was pushing a stroller recently and had to move off the pavement onto the road, to avoid a line of dockless rental bikes that were blocking my intended path.
- Luc 10y agoThanks, that's a good example.
