They should be more concerned about how the ppl using those things are a danger to pedestrians. I’ve been nearly hit by them too many times & seen collisions with pedestrians who aren’t as quick at jumping out of the way ☹️
As a species, we love to race shit.
Nothing but the news that matters 🙄
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Suggest we buy the ACT Police an Oxford Dictionary this year, as their actions in this video hardly fit the description or definition of 'Hooning'. It is neither, rude, aggressive or dangerous. Please give Detective Inspector Adrian Craft the first copy.
Is this a Twitter eScooter?
Is this still Australian what going on
'Detective Inspector Adrian Craft from ACT Policing said yesterday that hooning on e-scooters would be easily investigated'. ... Any self-respecting person should be ashamed for hooning on an e-scooter. Hope the ACT police can tame these wild beasts.
How boring.
More cancel culture. Sad
