Honestly the scooters seem like a reasonable idea, but they are being left everywhere in Brisbane, and also they're way too fast. Could bump them down to 25 or 20km/h pretty easily I would have thought.
I’m definitely in support of the scooters if they work with the city to ensure they stay out of walkways. The entire point of walkways are so that similar speed traffic is segregated together. Scooters are about 4x faster than a walking human.
