Thread: Lime e-scooter in Brisbane nearly caused accident

Attempting to introduce in U.K. however have a problem that rules are can only be driven on private land. Ride them off private land and police will fine you as the vehicle is not registered and insured

I must be living a very sheltered life.

Until now I have never heard of a lime scooter and it seems lots have...taken for granted.

Is it a city thing? In which case I will never see one , I don't go near the city.

If it's like those pushbikes every one leaves all over the gold coast I can understand them being left everywhere. Quite disgusting actually.

I went for another boom today.....had a work brunch.

The one I had going there got me upto 26km/hr than I discovered the brakes weren’t very effective. Adjusted them at the lights than was back flat out. My workers got a laugh when I pulled up.

The return journey wasn’t overly exciting

Ideal to zip up the Warego at 4:30 am, on the way to work.

About to terrorize pedestrians......going to grab one to transport me to Plasma Donation at Red Cross.......

Hopefully it’s a safe journey and I don’t need to receive blood.

Got back to work safely....didn’t appear to annoy any pedestrians.

One lady did suggest I should do the chin strap up on my helmet....

Oh had working brakes on both scooters today.

Next time pretend you are somewhere that doesn’t have a helmet requirement.
