People
ride electric scooters because they:
crave the feel of scooting -- like skiing on
land;
enjoy making local errands fun, quick and easy;
like to save money, meet new people, and protect the environment;
still need convenient, point-to-point transportation after losing their driving
privileges;
want their own traffic "lane", convenient parking spots and shortcuts;
would use public transportation if they could avoid the "long walk";
find electric scooter dates even more romantic than motorcycle dates;
regularly travel farther than the 1-mile range of kick scooters;
deserve more fun and freedom in their lives.
For either recreation or transportation,
electric scooters offer major advantages over the most popular gas-powered
scooters:
- Electric scooters are allowed on public
transit (bus/train/plane) whereas gas-powered scooters are prohibited.
- Noise and air pollution of gas-powered
scooters is eliminated.
Electric motors provide quick starts and hill-climbing without the delay of
gas engine "ramp up".
- Although often purchased as a "toy",
electric scooters often serve as transportation - whether for local errands or
when youngsters go to college.
