Are people really doing this? I’m asking this while knowing full well that people throw Starbucks frap cups into recycling with half the drink still in them and with a polystyrene straw inside.
Have you ever thought about starting an “ask a green person” column? I certainly have some questions that I can’t find clear answers to.
You seem like a pretty smart guy, David. Why are you doing this?
What a piece of crap. Good call on the helmet!
You’re a loon, David....a loon.
You know it is bad whan a horse-drawn carrage has better weather protection — and predicted reliability — than the vehicle you’re driving.
Were you envious of the people in the horse-drawn carriage?
fun with statistics. “Salt Lake City reported a 161 percent increase in scooter injuries—from eight injuries over a four-month time span in 2017 to 21 in that same time period this year.” Last year Salt Lake City had, roughly, 20 electric scooters, and 8 injuries. About 40% injured. This year, there are over 4,000…
I think your math might be off a bit. 161 percent is infinitely greater than 0.
161% is such a BIG number though - way scarier than, you know, 13. In a city of nearly 871 thousand people, that’s nearly a 0.00015% injury rate. Scary shit!
From the article: “multiple patients told doctors they were intoxicated and not wearing a helmet”
Sure there were no electric scooters a decade ago, but since then e-scooter injuries are up infinity percent. That’s too high a number to just ignore!
Also there is the strong possibility of people just being idiots. When those bulky 3 speed public bikes appeared for the first time in my city (after a night out at the bar), it took us the whole of two minutes before going “offroad” trough parks, train tracks, jumping sidewalks and generally mishandling the things.
This is part of a plot to destroy any remaining satisfaction with living in the Bay area.
The scooters should just shout “Resistance is futile!” and go full arrogant fuck-the-laws we’re spending VC cash as fast as we can disrupt disrupt woohoo!
In Denver, Lime and Bird aren’t complying with removal orders from city officials, with Lime telling the Denver Post that it wants to help educate them on “the initial community learning curves of a new form of transportation.”
Shouldn’t the article title be “Unlock me PROPERLY or I’ll call the police”...?
Because it’s public space they have no business “owning” in the first place!
*what has our society come to when tech bros drunk on startup cash think they can clog public sidewalks with their garbage and threaten to call the cops when people try to move it out of the way?
