“San Francisco said they “endanger public health and safety.” City attorney Dennis Herrera complained about “broken bones, bruises, and near misses.”
But excrement and urine on the sidewalks is A-OK. Never mind the laundry list of illnesses associated with coming in contact with human waste....you’ll swell up a little bit, but you’ll be ok. ;)
You’ll never find ‘em in SF bay:
San Francisco is concerned about a maybe injury but does not care about a definable disease situation?
Avoiding DNA samples in SF must be a challenge on those scooter thingies.
If I had a scooter company I would give the homeless in San Francisco free scooters, that would break the issue with the City!
Yeah, like do not use drugs in public, do not leave AIDS infected needles all over the place, do not scream at them sky or pedestrians, keep the bums off the streets, no sleeping in doorways or on sidewalks, no defecating or urinating in public, do not deface buildings with graffiti, put insane people in institutions. Nope, can't enforce those rules in the public square.
But new scooter rules? You betcha!!
