As e-scooters, e-bikes, and hoverboards become more popular, emergency rooms are treating more injuries and even deaths related to them.Residents of Paris have voted in favor of banning rental electric scooters from the French capital.
"The real consequence is for our 400,000 monthly users, for the 800 employees of Dott in Paris. Then it's also for the residents since, mathematically speaking, if we subtract the scooters, it's more saturation in public transport and more individual vehicles," Nicolas Gorse, chief business officer of scooter operator Dott, told RMC radio on Monday morning.
However, in a report last November, the French academy of medicine described e-scooters as a "true public health problem," and highlighted that "electric scooter-related accidents are associated with a significant number of serious injuries."
