Havoc? We dedicate 50% of space downtown to cars. But it's "havoc" when another form of transit takes 0.01% of sidewalk space.
That said riding on sidewalks should be discouraged, and individual offenders ticketed. But we should also create more biking like infrastructure in which these scooters can operate.
- resalisbury 9y agoSan Francisco is a continual disappointment to me in it's regulatory approach of banning things. Allow docess bikes? Nope let's mostly ban them but grant Uber subsidiary, Jump, a monopoly on operating a very small number. Allow electric scooters? Nope let's ban them! Have dynamic pricing for parking in the Richmond? Yes, but let's severly restrict how dynamic it can be and have a huge freakout. Build more houses? Nope let's downzone and empower local obstructionism.
