    Where’s the guy that got hit by the vehicles on the right? Maybe there’s a reason that perspective isn’t being heard.

      if you want to add speed control to cars fine

      I’m literally not arguing against speed controls on cars. You can tell that by reading.

      I’m saying I ALSO appreciate the mechanisms on scooters helping to keep me, as a pedestrian safe.

      What is wrong with your brain that makes these mutually exclusive propositions?

        I never said they were mutually exclusive. I’m just saying everyone is sharing some bad experience with scooters but the other side of the coin has been silenced.

        Though I will say that I live in a city with plenty of scooter use and I can’t think of a time it’s been a major issue. Meanwhile cars and trucks threaten my life on a daily basis.
