Indeed, my point was that these devices make sense for a lot of people, but we aren't accommodating the needs of the users by throwing them either into the roadways, bike lanes, or sidewalks.
Also, a lot of my stability/maneuverability/acceleration points likely don't apply to your e-micro. The Lime-S I tried weighs a ton, and has a battery in the stem, pushing the center of mass way up. And I think that this kind of scooters (larger, heavier) , rather than micros, will be the ones we'll see most, since they provide more range.
All the more arguments to build out e-scooter paths. Or better yet, close streets to car traffic, and let the scooters roam free.
- hndamien 8y agoThe centre of mass point is a really good one. I had not considered what a difference that makes.
