Unfortunately, 2 cannot make the difference between a renter who parked illegally and a renter who parked well but a random person kicked the e-scooter on the ground. I see this a lot with e-bikes in my neighborhood.

- whiplash451 2y agoI did read to the end but in large European cities those dedicated parking spaces are in contact with the sidewalks and the other parking spaces. Apparently some people enjoy dragging all the nicely parked e-bikes into the ground.
- aziaziazi 2y ago> lock them I think GP mean lock them to a solid pole, as a bike. Make the pole deliver electricity (non trivial) and you have a recharge station.

- whiplash451 2y agoMakes sense. I do think that would change the game entirely but the margin of operators goes mmmmmm…
- rad_gruchalski 2y agoYes, the profit opportunity before legislating the hell out of it.
- rad_gruchalski 2y agoIn Aachen these things stand right on the sidewalk, often sideways. I’m still young and can easily walk over them but a mother with a stroller or a person on a wheelchair doesn’t have it so easy.
