Significant injuries from "e-scooter use"??

Two pedestrians this week were hospitalised by a pickup truck driver in Toronto during their "sidewalk use".

Pedantic. Learning how to ride an escooter can be achieved in many ways. You detail one. I agree that is a sound way to learn.

Responsible riding is riding, in the context I was obviously discussing.

Op discussed a car hitting pedestrians as a comparison to the danger of scooters, which is what I was calling irrelevant re giving to children.
