The problem with these scooters is that they are great as a user, but terrible for everyone else. They are a lot of fun to ride, but if you're just a regular old pedestrian they are a nightmare, people park them in the streets and pass by you way to quickly and closely on the sidewalk.
But riding them in the street pisses off drivers and is pretty dangerous, at least that's how it shakes out in Cincinnati.

- the_clarence 8y agoNever had a problem with these. My main issue in cities are cars. They are noisy, they pollute, they are dangerous, they make the buses go slow, they require large streets that take ages to cross, require you to be constanty looking out for cars that might kill you...
