Significant injuries from “e-scooter use”??
Two pedestrians this week were hospitalised by a pickup truck driver in Toronto during their “sidewalk use”.

I had a coworker that fell off his e-scooter twice in two weeks. Ended up with a broken arm. Turns out roads in the US are shit, which is why we recommended a bike to begin with.
He was saved from serious injury because he was wearing a helmet. It’s not even controversial to say that if you don’t wear a helmet while riding a bike, scooter, skateboard, or any other wheeled vehicle that doesn’t fully encase you, you run a real risk of hitting your head and actually dying.
It is super weird how defensive some people get about the helmet thing.
No kidding. I’m a decent cyclist. I’ve bounced more than one helmet off the ground with my head in it. This is why I always wear one, and always insist my kids do too.
