Sometimes some people seem to need to learn lessons the hard way. It's much better if that hard lesson comes on a scooter rather than in a car. If we can get people to go to bars/etc on rental scooters then they won't have a

Yeah, I personally would choose a bike over a scooter. However I would much rather have an drunk idiot on a scooter than driving a car.

I don't see any other reason to kill 17,000 kids like that except as collective punishment or genocide. You seem pretty clear that it was neither so I'll leave it up to you to provide another reasonable explanation for why Isreal

You are correct that the mention of the new law doesn't really make sense in the context of the article. The currently state of affairs is that "e-bikes" with more than 750W didn't have a legal classification. They could
