If the problem is criminals, deal with criminals. If the problem is illegal vehicles, get illegal vehicles off the streets. But if every enforcement challenge ends with banning something that's already regulated, why bother regulating it in the first place? #EScooters #RoadSafety

'Historic high' in e-scooter use in Belgium due to fuel prices and strikes

The return of the warmer seasones usually leads to an increase in e-scooter and e-bike activity, but this "historic" rise is due to more than the weather.

Are e-scooters making our city streets more dangerous? 🛴💥 Our latest research in the European Economic Review studies the impact of shared e-scooter services on urban traffic accidents and the critical role of public policy (joint with @cannoncloud.bsky.social and @hesss.org) #EScooters 👇👇

We (@cannoncloud.bsky.social @kasingerj.bsky.social) evaluated the effects of e-scooters on accidents. Combining city-level (staggered) rollout dates with data on police-reported accidents, we find that accidents involving personal injury increased by 8.2%. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Could @smythstoysroi.bsky.social other retailers not take the same approach with e-scooters designed for children? Surely retailers have a responsibility to consider the safety of the products they market to kids. #escooters

Tesco has removed all disposable barbecues from sale across its stores in Ireland following concerns over the risk of wildfires during the current spell of hot and dry weather jrnl.ie/7105662

Indeed. Safety seems to be, remarkably, left out of the consideration. The vulnerability of the user in that standing position, limb positioning & the speeds on such small wheels always gives me a dose of the horrors 🤯 #spéirghorm #Escooters
