Har har, the issue is the joules of energy stored in the battery and how quickly it can be discharged. A pair of AA batteries store the same energy as ~5grams of TNT but they can not release it all at once. An electric scooter or bike battery stores the equivalent energy to a large car crash and can release it in seconds due to the chemistry and construction.

I am not in favour of car-centric transportation but cars very rarely explode and burn your house down when you sleep. Electric scooters come with a whole different set of hazards compared to cars, but yes, injuries per km does help to add context.
Fuuuuuck Nintendo. No one hates their fans more than Nintendo.
They are bricking brand new consoles, locking their USB ports to approved hardware, charging for the tech demo that would customarily be free on an $800 device. And that's just this year.
Speed limits are just a cash grab
Yeah! And heroine should be legal! Gun licensing is oppression!
If they are installed everywhere in a municipal area it could work but then you need everyone to use the same standard. Same problem as EV chargers, phone chargers, and laptop chargers.
They are already doing just that to their own people AND we are in their sights. How much to Canadians have to suffer before it's "ok" to push back.

Unless you charge EVERY time you park these are a gimic.
👏 Turn 👏 off 👏 the 👏 power.
Even just for an hour. Until all levels of US government understands that Canada is able to disrupt their country in a massive way they will keep playing these stupid games.
So, you think Poilievre was the right choice then? The guy who consistently voted against affordable housing?
Found the BMW driver.
Adding narrow shoulders, speed bumps and plastic bollards to the center of roads all slow down traffic because they makes it difficult and uncomfortable to speed. They also drive all the assholes back to main streets instead of taking their big-brain shortcuts through residential areas.
Speed cameras reduce speeding on the main streets by costing you money. After your 3rd, 5th, or 15th automatic ticket you will eventually slow down. You can't narrow the ridiculous 4 lane city streets in Brampton to slow people down, you can't put speed bumps in an 80 zone, speed cameras are a cheap and easy to deploy method of convincing drivers to slow the fuck down.
The problem is that non-CSA approved batteries and chargers are being sold in Canada with absolutely no regulation.
If you look at fires per unit sold the scooters and bikes are probably an order of magnitude higher than stoves and dryers.
