Except that's not actually the case. People with genuine mobility issues can get personal medical mobility scooters. If you actually watch who uses scooters in DC 99% are tourists not commuters and definitely not physically impaired folks.

Not good enough. DC already has that law and scooters still litter the sidewalks Scooter companies need to follow the same rules as CityBike. Have city-approved docking/charging stations that scooters must be docked in and impound any left in the street. And charge the scooter users a fine tonpay for the impound workers.
Funny how you almost never see a CityBike abandoned but Lime and Uber bikes are just discarded on the sidewalk like trash.

Gestapo? Scooters litter the sidewalks, forming tripping hazards, making it hard for wheelchairs to get by and just generally making the city look uglier. Would love to see the city actually impound these trashy shitmobiles.

Reply to TIL in 1979, in between a double-header, the White Sox exploded a crate filled with disco records to stands of over 50k disco haters. Thousands flocked to the field afterward, which became so destroyed that they forfeit the 2nd game to the Tigers - the last time in AL history. by JackMacWindowsLinux
Yet another sad example of racism in America.

As a disabled vet who no casual observer would immediately figure out am disabled, yes. The point still stands though, DC needs to regulate them better than they currently do. Of course that could be said about many, many aspects of city government.
