City adding corrals in hopes of boosting numbers; scooter companies say city's sidewalk throttling rule is too aggressive
Thieves are targeting the most advanced scooters — the only models that don’t struggle with city’s unusual sidewalk slowdown rule.City officials said they’re exploring some incentives and possible administrative changes that could boost the number of scooters available on a typical day in San Diego from 1,400 closer to the city’s goal of 8,000.
While environmentalists and scooter advocates expressed frustration about the lack of scooters caused by the crackdown, the watchdog group Safe Walkways urged city officials not to back down. Rogers said the city should also ban Bird, the last remaining scooter company, because most of its scooters aren’t technologically advanced enough to comply with the city’s sidewalk rule. It requires scooters to slow down to 3 mph any time they are steered onto a sidewalk.
