    If someone did the exact same business model just with cars instead of e-scooters they would probably be celebrated instead of banned.

      If it is like in Italy, the problem is not where you drive it but where you leave it at the end of your ride

    I’ve been to cities that use e-scooters and I’ve never seen “chaos”. In fact, I saw very few “tossed” on the ground.

      I swear it’s just attentional bias for most people. You are so used to other things and uniterested in “well-behaved” scooters, that you think there is chaos.
