Scooter share services seriously are awesome, they bring mobility to the underserved in a way that buses extremely struggle to. They're awesomely cheap, and Bird can add demand to any area simply by trucking in a new load of scooters.
I don't know how long it'll last, but normal people can even make money charging them. It's got me considering spending $200 on my own scooter, though I think I'll just use the service until I'm ready to bite that bullet.
