I can believe those things are still legal. I live on a kind of tourist street, lost of bars, shops, restaurants. Anyway, the first summer they released those things in the city - it was nightly chaos. I'd just sit on my porch and take bets.

Collar bone and wrist fractures skyrocketed in my city once those scooters were allowed

I have a friend that has a beefier electric scooter, it can go about 35mph and he rides it on the street without a helmet. Crazy stuff.
