She was hit by an e-scooter despite Toronto's ban. The city needs to step up regulation, she says - eviltoast

Canadian National Institute for the Blind calls for ban as mayor acknowledges use ‘mushrooming’

I had no idea e-scooters were illegal in TO. I have a feeling most don’t either.

    I feel awful for the woman hit and I believe that scooters shouldn’t be on the sidewalk. But it sounds like the CNIB still just wants them banned. 4 people are hit by a car every day in Toronto. It feels like complaining about mosquitoes while a bear is mauling you. Yes it sucks, but we should focus on getting cars off the road through transit and personal means of transportation like bikes and scooters with bike lanes.
