Pros And Cons Of Shareable Electric Scooters

Shareable electric scooter programs have started to roll out into U.S. cities, leading to debate over whether their benefits outweigh the potential consequences. The Onion looks at the pros and cons of shareable electric scooters.


PRO

Sturdy, but still light enough for child to tip into lake

Always good to get people walking less

Cape flows nicely at full speed

Huge spike in organ donations


CON

Another asshole in Palo Alto is getting rich

Can barely even reach 30 mph on the freeway

Economy juggling enough different tech bubbles as it is

Still doesn’t solve problem of walking 20 feet from front door to scooter on sidewalk
