Put up a sign with your parking rates

The company should be picking them up soon (whatever soon means).

They appear out of nowhere, and their riders disappear into nothingless.

If they stay long enough, put prices and sell them.

Scooter rental people … is he talking about those who use them or those who provide them? I’ve had more problems with the users whereas I often see the company trucks servicing and repositioning the different conveyances.

I bet four of those would be the basis of a truly fine gokart.

I bet they’re geo-fenced and Betty’s house is the edge of the range.

Hold the scooters hostage until the owners agree to change the drop site.

A lot of people ride them until they run out of charge. Betty an Co. are probably at the exhaustion point from the charging station.

I honestly don’t know why – it’s probably my most irrational emotion – but I loathe those scooters. If they left them in front of my house, I’d probably drive my truck over them.

Lawn ornaments!

On the city sidewalk no problem … private property… there is a problem.

See what the app says about putting the scooters in your trunk, driving down to the canal and tossing them in…
