On April 4th, 2019 an article Jennifer Kendall Posted an article on (FOX 7 Austin) - A bill filed in the Texas legislature would create some restrictions on electric scooters throughout the state. Senate Bill 549 would set some basic scooter laws and allow cities to create more restrictive policies if they so choose. The bill would require riders to be at least 16-years-old with a driver's license with a regulated parking spot for scooters. There would also be a 15 mph speed limit for scooters. I support the idea of wanting to keep our citizens safe, but I’ve taken bikers into considered. Biker tent to go over 15 miles per hour and could also be in danger, as well as the scooter riders but, are not required to have a license or have to be 16-years-old to ride a bike. In comparison to bikers, I would say this double standard. I do approve of the ideological of having regulated parking spots for scooters. Scooters have been thrown down and misplaced all of the cites. Regulated parking spots would help scooter companies pick them up in a more efficient way.
