It's a real shame that private scooters will not be allowed. There is no explanation as to why but I guess it's due to insurance etc.
I can see some smaller towns being left out with no scooter rental companies being interested in setting up there.
The rental model seems to work for one way trips in some urban areas. E.g. get to town, need to return, hire a scooter return home, leave scooter. It gets collected, returned to town again. Need to go to town tomorrow, no scooter available as you live in the suburbs.
Legalising private scooters is the way to go if its going to be done - after all they have private cycles and rental cycles.
