Most European cities where scooters (mopeds) make up a seizable portion of traffic (e.g. Paris) would come to a standstill if you "didn't do that".
The issue is more that drivers in the US aren't used to sharing the road with these vehicles.
In Paris, drivers naturally drive far left and far right on roads that have two lanes per direction to leave a corridor for the scooters in the middle.
Then 'going around traffic' is less of an issue for everyone involved.
- gkilmain 8y agoIs 'going around traffic' the same as 'weaving in and out of traffic'? How do you propose we leave the middle corridor open for your scooter when its jammed bumper to bumper? Fuck your scooters
- jobigoud 8y ago> Fuck your scooters You don't own the road. It's a shared space.
- gkilmain 8y agoMy point is you can't weave in and out of traffic. Stay in your lane like everyone else. Want to use the bike lane ride a bike.
