Leaving them anywhere is the whole problem. My neighbour is in his 70s and uses a mobility scooter. I see parents having to detour their pushchairs onto the road to get around them. People are literally leaving these bikes lying horizontal across the pavement!
That’s clearly not what I’m talking about. I’m referring to the ability to leave them parked on any road. You’re once again conflating that with bad actors.
When you get off of a Lime Bike the app requires you to take a picture of how you parked it. The ability to find bikes local to people even where there are no docks/bays increases public health and transport links.
If bikes are found flat on the pavement or blocking the pavement, that’s a public disorder problem, not a Lime Bike problem and should be tackled as such.
