The death of a 50-year-old man in a Lime Scooter related accident has prompted the Pedestrian Council of Australia to call for a ban of the electric scooters in Brisbane.
Council chief Harold Scruby says ‘the risk to riders and pedestrians can’t be adequately managed’ and Brisbane City Council should not ‘be looking to issue a second company an operating license.’
The Brisbane City Council has expressed sympathy for the man’s family and says it won’t be commenting further, pending a police investigation into the death.
