Subject: [Ohio-Talk] Question about dockless scooters

This is a question for those of you who are living in Ohio’s larger cities. Last summer the NFB passed a resolution about the problem of dockless scooters that get dropped on sidewalks and cause problems for blind walkers. We can’t read the contact information for reporting problems, and they are being driven on sidewalks. We are contemplating developing a resolution for chapters to take to their city councils about this problem to try to find local solutions to the problems that are popping up. My question is whether you are having trouble with these scooters. Do you have comments that you would like us to know about in shaping a resolution about this problem? Are chapters interested in having such a resolution to take to city council? How big a problem are these scooters in Ohio. Anything you can tell me about such problems would help us. The scooters are not in Oberlin, so I have no experience of them.

Thanks,
Barbara

The National Federation of the Blind knows that blindness is not the characteristic that defines you or your future. Every day we raise expectations for blind people because low expectations create obstacles between blind people and their dreams. You can live the life you want; blindness is not what holds you back.
