This wouldn't surprise me at all, if it almost entirely be rental scooters.

Here in Adelaide, they have these rental scooters lining the sidewalks on the nightlife strips - on the weekend!

This seems to me to be almost criminally negligent. What do they think young people are going to do with these things, while drunk? They are going to ride them, while drunk, and they are going to have accidents, of course. Because they're drunk.

I like the rental scooters, as they're a great way of getting round the city when you're in a hurry, but they should shut them down on the weekend evenings, FFS.

Sounds like a good case for banning cars from nightlife strips during peak activity hours.
