Just relating to the topic, in the city Mobile, AL they have e-scooters for rent. You don't have to go to a store to pick it up, they're just sitting around. I think they use a mobile app to unlock them and drive.
I haven't tried them yet, but I've seen them and live across the bay from Mobile. I'm not sure how fast they go.
