re:scooters
You're probably right about the bike lanes. The last thing I need is to be on my bike or walking, and some scooterjerk barrels down past me at 40mph. My history class (I'm in 10th grade) just had a guest speaker from China, which, you may know, has some of the most densely populated, and poorest cities in the world. She said that scooters are to bicycles in China as cadillacs are to hondas here. Most people there have bikes, and the few who can afford them have scooters. Almost noone drives a car within the city limits.
