Haven’t read the articule, but SUV’s pay tax, sales/fuel etc so do nothing they are generating revenue. e-scooters/micro mobility? scum of the earth, it can’t be free to move around?! insanity!
Can’t wait to get an e-scoot myself.
Because the huge SUVs that you have in the US are already banned in the EU.
Because, as I walk through the city, it is 10x more common to find an e-scooter blocking the sidewalk than an SUV?
Or, maybe, because SUVs do not go at 25kph in walking areas?
I can absolutely agree with this…
to be clear about what’s a real problem, and what’s not. (…) Pick up trucks and monster SUVs are
-the-a problem and we need a public debate about those 3-4% biggest cars, the space they claim and the danger they pose.
EDIT: My city has specific, identified and plenty spaces for e-scooters. Either the rental e-scooters break down (too) frequently, or (some of!) the users of those are assholes that abandon them at random.
Becuse scooters are something the youths and poors use, massive SUVs are a upper middle class thing, obviously.
