Calling All Abandoned...eScooters?

Calling All Abandoned Carts is a fun ongoing thread started by @northy some years ago. I have added to it from time to time and I am always on the lookout for carts in unusual places. Yesterday I was walking the dog along the river and noticed this electric scooter sitting there. I thought it odd that noone was there but when I walked by it again on my return 30 minutes later I realized it had been abandoned. It is a rental so maybe someone ran out of charge or perhaps someone used a stolen credit card to steal it and drove it til it died. Anyway, Lime is the name of the rental company and it has a touch of green on it so it matches todays Rainbow March colour.
How amazing is that, great find and capture. Did you let the company know where it is?

We have Lime in Australia as well and many are abandoned. And there are many discarded helmets as well!

They’re everywhere. But at least this scooter is in a photogenic area.

Nicely presented. Those scooters are a plague. Around here they get dumped all the time, in the most random places.

A fascinating shot in the light of recent events here in York, UK. Escooters are illegal to use in the UK unless they are owned by a company taking part in one of several trials in different parts of the country. York was a trial centre, but the company operating here has declined to extend its contract beyond the end of April, much to the relief of many who have had problems with Escooter users misusing them.

an interesting dilemma. Nothing like that available here.

Some of our cities seem to have moved on from E-Scooters to E-Bikes. Apparently there had been too many injuries from the scooters.

I like the shot, but we see these damn things all over town here too!
