Today in Limes where they shouldn't be - the wisdom-deficient person/s responsible for this managed to not only make the bus-stop bench inaccessible but also render the scooters unusable for anyone otherwise able-bodied but lacking in a certain amount of height and upper body strength.

(Possessing the necessary, I remedied the problem after taking the photo.)

These Neuron and Lime scooters are getting a bit annoying (if they weren't already).

Lime have been dumping dozens on the footpath everyday in a busy spot in front of the Goodwill bridge, presumably for QUT GP students (noting e-scooters are banned on campus).

On at least one occasion a scooter was neatly lined up going into the bike path. Missed the opportunity for a photo but I'm sure it'll happen again.

In the meantime I'll keep cursive at Big Scooter for these dumb footpath blocking machines and the BCC for its incredibly lax/nonexistent enforcement.

Council set to ban hire e-scooters operated by Lime and Neuron from Melbourne’s CBD

I think this is a good move. Rental scooters are dumped all over the place and create a mess on footpaths. They're also a problem when inexperienced riders get on the road and try to mingle with cyclists and motorists. Furthermore, the companies are getting bought-up by Uber and used to greenwash their unstainable business model.

Council poised to ban hire e-scooters from Melbourne’s CBD

The City of Melbourne is likely to rip up its contract with operators Lime and Neuron. The companies will be given 30 days’ notice of the contracts’ cancellation.

Story of my life. Weird shit keeps happening to me which isn't even referenced. –I call it the Pauli effect. For multiple days the #LimeScooters have, for me and others but not for everyone, been stuck in the tutorial loop. This isn't why I signed up for Lime Prime. Put in a ticket.

Most #ScooterShare hate seems unjustified (especially given the benefits of #SharedMobility), but I am kinda annoyed how #LimeScooters start beeping at you angrily if you try to help by moving them out of the middle of the sidewalk or picking them up when they've fallen.
