I'm sure you can walk around them. Calling them "real hazards" is stretching things to a ridiculous level. Yes they're messy, but they're not hazards.
- gamblor956 8y agoPeople with movement disabilities can't just walk around obstacles in the sidewalk. To them, scooters left lying all over the sidewalks are definitely hazards.
- Supermancho 8y ago"lying all over the sidewalks" is a different scenario than the typical encounter. Cones "all over the sidewalks" are an equal "hazard" but it happens infrequently and is not a reported problem. Where is this coming from?
- briandear 8y agoIf that's the case, then let's remove the bike-share racks.
- nradov 8y agoCities typically issue permits for the bike share racks and work with the bike companies to ensure they are installed in safe locations.
