Just this week in Vantaa, Finland three 12-year-old girls piled onto one of those electric scooters you subscribe to with an app and proceeded to get run over by a car at a crossing, killing one of them
The app is supposed to have an age restriction but it's easy to bypass and you're not supposed to have more than one person riding on one, which people routinely ignore
I hate seeing kids and teens speeding around dangerously on those fucking things and then just leaving them laying around on high-traffic bike routes because they don't give a shit since they treat the scooters as completely disposable
Fucking awful bazinga-brained Silicon Valley-ass idea and business model. Actually, there are also bikes you can use with an app but curiously you don't see kids doing reckless shit with those, almost as if electric scooters were uniquely terrible 
It's not really psyop shit it's just that there's so many people who have entirely irrational big mad at the things that they kick them over even when reasonably parked or alternatively they will remove them from "their" space into the "others" space which end you at a slow moving game of increasingly damaged e-scooter ping pong across the street.

So is there enough space on the sidewalk or bicycle path to park them without being obstructing?
