Scooters are the latest scourge on Bloomington and it seems that our city officials refuse to directly address the issue. The unenforceable regulations that tie them to bicycles is ridiculous. I walk downtown routinely and each time I have gone downtown I have experiences a scooter whizzing by me on the sidewalk in the "dismount" zone. Motorized vehicles should not be on sidewalks, period. They also continue to litter the downtown and neighborhoods. They lay everywhere and create an unsightly mess all over town. Bloomington is quickly becoming a less desirable city in which to live because of our mayor's and city council's inability to deal with this latest invasion.

I reported a scooter parked here on S Park Ave---714, I think--two days ago. Here is another this morning.

Bird scooter blocking sidewalk.
These 2 have been there for 2 days now. We have a nearly blind lady in our neighborhood. Can you imagine what happens if she walks her dog and does not realize that these 2 monsters are in her path!

There were not only these scooters, but 2 more in the middle of the Morton-Grimes lot next to these, plus 2 more to the side. There was a scooter in the middle of the B Line Monday morning. More scooters at the B Line and Allen intersection. I almost always see turned over scooters on the B Line going south from Allen, Bird and Lime. My suggestion is to have huge dumpsters so the riders can simply dump them, as I know often the companies do, a scooter landfill! What a shame!

Two houses from where this scooter was parked in the 700 block of S Eastside Drive, there lives a blind person. She already has made one fall after a collision with a 'parked' scooter. I thought the scooter companies were not going to accept payment until they had proof (a picture?) that the renter had parked the scooter in a responsible manner. So much for that!

Your "include a photo" does not seem to be working. Email me if you want it. Bird scooters parked(probably by charger) blocking only narrow sidewalk on Second Street just east of High St. Road is very narrow. One fell into street and almost caused a swerving car to hit my car. I tried to go back and move the scooter but someone had already run over it.
