The Los Angeles Times reported on Sunday that workers at Santa Monica Beach and Venice have seen these scooters tossed into the ocean and trash cans. One police officer in Venice, Calif., said his officers have seen them stacked 10 feet high, but these cases are not being called in.
“If we have to prioritize the allocation of our time and resources, first and foremost we’re going to prioritize the preservation of life,” Lt. Michael Soliman told the paper. “Protection of property comes second.”

Damn that's funny right there! The sad thing is Jake day will still bring this crap to salisbury even though it's a proven failure
Already happened here with the rent-a-bike scam, people tossed them in to ponds and stuff... Only a matter of time for when SBY gets scooters or electric bikes or scooters... Its all to waste money...

On the shore the priority is to catch people crossing the line with untaxed cigarettes.

I was recently in Durham,NC for a week. There are three major universities, Duke, UNC and Wake Forest within 15 miles of downtown Durham, along with several smaller colleges. There are three different scooter franchises attempting to operate in this market, Spin, Lime and I forget the other one. Anyway, there are hundreds of scooters parked downtown, near restaurants, apartment buildings and other places where one would expect to find them. However, there are at least a thousand in ditches, ponds, trash piles, woodlots and other places of abandonment. Salisbury, you have been warned!
Jake Day, call your office!
With no guard rail at the rivers edge downtown, there is little to say people are not able to "accidentally" walking them into the river.
