Returning the bikes to a dock is a benefit to everyone else in the city.
A dock is always placed in a location agreed by the council. It’s guaranteed to not be in anyone’s way or a safety hazard.
Maybe the dockless users in your city are more conscious. In mine, they will happily leave their rentals blocking the footpath. I constantly need to stop my child’s pram and move the bike out of the way.
Dockless bikes are an appropriation of public spaces by private companies and need to stop.
- vkou 9y ago> Dockless bikes are an appropriation of public spaces by private companies and need to stop. I'll support this, as soon as we reclaim the millions of square feet of private space appropriated by curbside parking. This would free up enough space for everyone, and their extended families to park their bikes. If every block in my neighborhood has room for free parking for ~40 cars, then surely we could reclaim a few of those spots, for the sake of free parking for a greater number of dockless bikes.
- slivym 9y agoWhat you're describing is re-purposes car parking spaces as locations for docking stations.
- vkou 9y agoThe current situation with docking station is that they are ~10 blocks apart from each other. There should be a parking spot for bicycles on every single block. Just like we have 40 spots to park cars on every block.
