For anyone who doubted electric scooters are here to stay, consider what happened this past summer in Nashville
There are new rules that, among other steps, reduce the number of scooter providers from seven before Gaulke’s tragic death to three.
Providers must have two employees on duty locally for every 100 vehicles to keep sidewalks clear, and they must establish 24-hour consumer hotlines so people can report scooters that are parked illegally or impeding sidewalks. During that period there were 936,110 scooter trips taken. There were 190 people injured while riding a scooter, or 20 injuries per 100,000 trips.“We have launched something we call First Ride Academy,” said Lime’s Kovacevich. “We host these academies when we enter a new city.”
“An alarming 19% of those injured in the Austin study blamed the scooter itself, believing the brakes or accelerator malfunctioned,” Weintraub said. In the near term, the rules of the road for e-scooters will be hammered out in local transportation agencies, mayors’ offices and city councils.“These are pretty early days for the industry,” said Lime’s Kovacevich. “We are not wedded to scooters in their current form.”
