As an unintended consequence I suspect we will see soon, if not already, the first e-scooter fatality. For sure we will already have had bike sharing deaths but these will be included in the general road statistics. I am sure this new class of transport device will tempt the public, millennials particularly to try them and consider them selves immune to existing traffic regulations – Red lights really do mean stop, even for soccters!
If we think autonomous cars will kill people then e-scooters are likely kill more.
I’d still try one though.
