  • exactly. and what happens when u arrive at a docking station that is full! where u put ur scooter???

  • This is very interesting. Yes, there is a chance of this being stolen, if integrated into the general public, but what about in private large areas, eg theme park, zoo, or a university campus. It would be also great 4 each 2 be tagged with a GPS locator if in case it is stolen. Also, cos u need to 'swipe in' 2 gain access, missing or un docked scooters can be flagged and your credit card or something will be charged or a fine issued.

  • great idea.. goodjob!

  • I think this would only really work for campuses to get to and from your car.

    What if a car smashes into it? More cost to fix.

    What about double the electricity use? More electricity being used.

    Could be stolen? Unless you use a bank card with ur name on it.

    Plus theirs a slight chance someone could get hurt on your route.

  • Le vrai Scooter System, c'est par là : scooter-system.fr !

    Il ne faudrait pas tout mélanger ;)

  • great idea

    

  • brilliant idea.

  • is it true that it is impossible to die/devastate on this set.

  • Exactly, how often do hire cars get stolen? not very from what I gather.

    To me, docking station spaces would be the biggest issue. I comprehensive study of peoples movements would be needed to ensure that say somewhere like central station had heaps of docks compared to somewhere less popular. My suggestion would be something similar to the trolley racks at airports. But also these have a finite capacity.

    You need to employ re-distributors much like a hire company or the trolly guy at Coles.
