Scootering along the Yarra's edge during peak hour = lots of pedestrians with zero spatial awareness. Almost cleaned up one girl who made a very sudden 90 degree turn while staring deep into her phone screen. That was a mix of stressful and relaxing 6/10 one thumbs up.
That kind of zero spatial awareness makes me long for those ancient Briton chariots, with revolving scythes on their wheels a la Boudicca. I wonder if one could bolt scythes onto a scooter .... hrrrm.
Kinda murderous… 🤔
I like it. 😂
