Duggan: Scooters are here to stay

And, yes, I see them lying all over the place. Saw one on Livernois and 7 yesterday, in the middle of the sidewalk, abandoned and cold

I've seen the same 4 scooters left behind on the north side of Michigan Ave at W. Grand Blvd for about 3 weeks. When I first saw them, I was surprised to see them that far out from the downtown/midtown areas.

Those scooters, I was told, have tracking devices in them so they could be left in the roughest most economically deprived neighborhood and no one would bother to steal them. The riders are reckless riding those things on the sidewalks almost running into pedestrians. They need scooter training classes.
