A number of major cities have seen shared e-scooters, or electrical scooters, take over their streets. It’s certainly popular with the riders, but it is creating waves with a lot of critics as well. In Portland, Oregon, there are four companies trialing the scooters over a several-month period. Driving around my city, I find that we are being inundated with scooters being used on the sidewalk, on the streets, in bike lanes.
Some of the 75 plus cities that have tried to adopt this new concept of convenient transportation have already kicked these companies out, and I’m curious what will occur here in Portland.
So what about the orthopedic surgeon’s take on the e-scooter craze?
