I don’t know.. it’s a little bit of both.
The scooters are super convenient when you can park it anywhere, the whole idea of micro-mobility actually works and is more convenient than taking an Uber or a Lyft. It’s also the most fun you can have with $3 in a city.
In theory it cuts down on unnecessary car traffic, and you don’t have to get sweaty on a bicycle. The problem is, cities started forcing by the scooters to add arcane geofencing rules requiring you to park it or pick it up far from your origin or destination. That sort of ruins the whole point of the scooters.
- 908B64B197 4y agoI remember not being able to drop one at a park. A pedestrian-friendly space with a huge bike rack where I could get the scooter in a location where it wouldn't obstruct the sidewalk. But some bureaucrat decided parks were off limits. Had to drop it on the sidewalk next to said park.
