My son has been me and they really are Great fun
He went on to buy a more powerful one which was rather scary. Bigger heavier and faster
he has gone back to the smaller one and gets about on it very well
However, I am seeing a lot of teenagers on these, often riding two up and at full speed and suddenly shooting out of side roads into the middle of the carriageway and often when I am coming home at night as well as the kamikaze cyclists in dark clothing and no lights coming from all directions we now also have kids in black clothing on black scooters with no lights And often on the wrong side of the road
Unfortunately the absence of agreed sensible road rules aka The Highway Code is putting them at risk.
Yes they are brilliant for transport in a city but the implementation is a problem
