You know you can bring your scooter inside, right?
- themafia 1y agoIn particular, not at the grocery store I shop at, they have no provision for it and they would ask me to bring it back outside if I tried. Even so it would not be more secure there than outside. There is no store security and the vehicles typically don't even have a key, alarm, or tracker built into them. They disappear easily.
- saagarjha 1y agoI just roll mine around it's not really a problem
- themafia 1y agoThey don't have baskets at this store. You have to use a push cart. This probably has something to do with the amount of theft that occurs in this area. I'm also probably not equally abled to you so a _bicycle_ is more useful to me and pushing that around a store with a cart getting groceries would be a ridiculous chore. The world would probably be better if you didn't assume that everyone's experiences are identical to yours. Otherwise I can just keep using my gas powered truck to get groceries. I can easily afford that and it's "not a problem" for me. An EV bicycle just seemed more considerate in several ways, and unless it has the features that speak to my needs, I don't see myself using one.
- rimunroe 1y agoI don't know of a solution for the types of half-size carts common in small grocery stores, but I've seen people stash their scooters in the space below the main basket of full size carts
- themafia 1y agoOkay. Could you also just put some anti-theft features on the device itself? Is there some reason NOT to do this? What an absurd conversation this has been.
- rimunroe 1y agoIt seems like that would be difficult given its size. It's hard to secure something you can just pick up and walk away with if you can't lock it to something
