scooters are blocking streets and sidewalks all over town
scooters are blocking streets and sidewalks all over town
They fly across the street, at night, through the crosswalk, no lights, no warning, wearing black. This has happened in front of me three times in the last 6 weeks. I am an extremely safe driver--I actually go the speed limit. I stop feet before the stop line. I look both ways multiple times, even with a green light, yet I almost hit three of them. I hate them, they make the city look cheap. I am from Seattle and have seen how bad that city and the cities surrounding it about 30 miles have gone down in the last 6 years. Bloomington is well on its way to being like those cities, somewhere people will not want to send their kids to college. Scooters is just one more reason to avoid Bloomington. I have a teenage son, 9th grade, and are making college plans, but I don't really want him at IU due to the downtown problems with the homeless and panhandlers, etc.--it's not safe. We are looking at other colleges.
I reported a scooter parked here on S Park Ave---714, I think--two days ago. Here is another this morning.
Pace bike #105040 has been parked here in Bryan Park for a long time. Is someone actually using it?
4 Lime scooters making a statement? Saturday April 6 mid-morning, 500 block S. Mitchell
3 bird scooters blocking the sidewalk. Grant st outside library.
Lime e-scooters have been dumped, partially in the street near the intersection of Etter Drive and Stephens in the Eastern Heights addition. This have been unused, and are certainly unwanted, and need to be removed from the street, and not placed on anyone's private property. Thank You.
Trashed scooters
This is on E Second near the footbridge close to Anita. These scooters were not left by the users. They were out there bright and early on Dec. 5. Totally blocking the sidewalk. A disgrace. Show this to Mr. BIRD!
Other: Other: Electric bicycle lying in grass for a few days now on the south side of 7th street half-way between Grant and Dunn right next to the bike path and in the area that used to be the main steps up to the Poplars.
