Important caveat: It's not dangerous at all if streets are designed for it.
My city's roads are a dumpster fire due to one-wheel idiot-devices, electric scooters, and other micromobility.
With the exception of one-wheel idiot-devices, I've seen all the same stuff work in other cities beautifully, which had adapted infrastructure to them. I love micromobility done right, and I hate it done locally.
- EGG_CREAM 3y agoExcellent point! I’m not against non-car transportation at all, and generally am of the belief that if a policy decision is bad for cars it’s probably good for everyone. But in my city, at least, the other pieces of transportation are an afterthought and it can be really dangerous.
