Discussion Public opinion on e-scooters

11 Upvotes

Was riding down a road recently when someone in a nearby vehicle told me to "get off the road". It made me think about the rules that apply to e-scooters and people's opinion about them.

I mostly ride on the edge of a road, but feel like it hinders the flow of traffic (especially when I have to take a left turn and need to be in the inner lane). Riding on sidewalks seems like a better choice since I rarely comes across pedestrians off campus, but I don't think that's allowed. I use bike lanes whenever I get the chance, but even that's rare off campus. Hence, I want to know if e-scooters follow the same rules as motorcycles and other vehicles.

This can apply to electric skateboards, e-bikes, and other micro-mobility devices as well.

Perspectives of drivers, e-scooter users and pedestrians are welcome.

DMAT Question

Upvotes

Hi all! I will be transferring to UGA this summer semester, and had a question about the DMAT.

I have taken MATH 1113 before (dual enrollment at GSU), but had to withdraw because my senior semester was actual hell. Since I didn’t take it “in-residence” at UGA, would I still be able to get MATH 1113 exempted for Terry?
