Especially hurtful to people who have limited mobility and get around with a wheelchair, walker, crutches, or have trouble bending down to move them out of the way. On top of that I've seen them left in bushes, in the street taking up parking space, or blocking doors or gates.
- scarejunba 8y agoI don't see what's wrong with them taking up parking space. Considering mean occupancy of cars in America, the street parked scooter is doing just as well in serving one individual as a street parked car. In fact, I'd argue we should remove more parking spots and switch them to scooter spots.
- maxk42 8y agoIn Hollywood if you take up a parking space with a scooter instead of turning it sideways so a car can still fit you are a massive dick. Parking is a very limited resource here.
- scarejunba 8y agoWhich is why you don’t use it for one person’s car instead of five people’s scooters. Enough subsidies for cars.
- esotericn 8y agoCan't you just like, get out of the car, move it, then park? If it's a shared resource like a Bird scooter then there's no moral quandary about "touching other people's stuff" that would make sense for an actual person's property. The company doesn't care, there's no-one that even can care.
