I really have mixed feelings about this. I live in a college town and I see a lot of students using Bird scooters to get to class when they are late, or to their jobs- not daily use, but as needed. Some people will grab scooters and scoot around as a group but that is not very common. On the other hand, there is almost no management of these scooters. They are abandoned on sidewalks, in streets, tossed into ditches, left in strangers' yards. They get run over. I even saw a Bird scooter "parked" at a collection of trash bags, then- as far as I know- thrown away. Really they were a nuisance as much as a boon as temporary transportation.
