I don’t know the best tactics for trafficking awareness, that’s the whole point of my original comment. Coming on here and saying “it’s likely never sex trafficking” does not help raise awareness, if anything it does the opposite. I never said I was an expert, but apparently you are, but you took the time to chid OP and remind everyone that it’s likely not sex trafficking. Thanks.

Bad take. Scooters are a great method of alternative transportation. Your issue is with the shitty users who throw them places they shouldn’t be after getting to their destination.

Fortunately it seems at least some of the scooter companies are stepping up enforcement of parking in acceptable spots, making you take a picture when you’re finished the ride of it locked up and out of the way of the sidewalk.

Sorry but in DC even if you catch them doing something like this they will be out and on the streets again in 24 hrs or less especially if they are under 18. Until DC decides to get serious about keeping low level criminals and dangerous people with mental health issues away from the public things aren't going to change, just be thankful that the last bill didn't pass or else DC would have really been in more trouble. If people don't think they will be any consequences for their actions they have no reason to stop their actions.
