So e-scooters are all over Californian cities, apart from the odd occasion when a city bans them before allowing them back shortly later. In SF we had Lime, Scoot, Jump (just from the top of my head), and they were by and large a nightmare.
People riding them at speed on the pavements, dropping them on the floor wherever they fancied (despite the app forcing you to park them responsibly), weaving in an out of traffic, jumping red lights, hitting pedestrians as they're near silent.
They're fun to ride (we rode them round a park in San Diego for an hour or so) but they create a complete new set of obstacles within in a city environment.
