Anecdata, but the vast majority of people I see using using escooters in Australian cities are kids and drunk people.

It’s not hard to see either: they’re bright orange or purple, and are usually seen on a Saturday or Sunday morning dumped thoughtlessly in disabled ramps, in a gutter, or some other place that a drunk might find convenient.

Private ownership would clear this up. (not legal in NSW).

If you paid 600$ for one I don't expect you'd leave it in a gutter.

I'm almost 50 and I'd love to legally write an electric skateboard. I'd use it in most places. Now I just take the car, because it's the only way I can travel at speed with my dog.
