scooter wise you'd want a 125 rather than a 50cc - something not restricted to 30mph. these slow ones are supposed to be safer but having every car come up behind you try to overtake you is unnerving.
electric scooters would need a fair bit of research. the charge frequently doesn't hold as long as advertised.
no harm in giving it a test drive anyway i guess.
Watching Prime Times. Apparently those electric scooters are causing serious injuries. They go so fast and no-one wears any protective gear. No sympathy whatsoever as you'd want to be a major KNOB to be using one of them
And not just the breakneck speeds but some of them think they're entitled to flouting the rules like cyclists. They seem to think that traffic lights don't really count for them and that footpaths are there for them when some streets are inconveniently one-way against them or too busy with traffic.I think they are great to have - taking some pressure off transport system. There are some lunatics on them wo think they are immortal through. When the speed limiters are bypassed on them there was a model that yer mad was selling there on Primetime which could reach 120kmph. Insane.
