Die Stadt Austin plant eine striktere Regulierung von E-Scootern in der Innenstadt. Die Bürgermeisterin von Austin, Anne Holton, hat eine Verordnung vorgeschlagen, die es E-Scootern verbieten würde, auf Gehwegen zu fahren. Stattdessen sollen sie nur noch auf Radwegen oder Straßen unterwegs sein.

Die Entscheidung kommt nach einer Serie von Unfällen, die mit E-Scootern in Zusammenhang stehen. Die Stadt Austin hat in den letzten Monaten eine Zunahme von Verletzungen durch E-Scooter-Unfälle verzeichnet. Einige Menschen befürchten auch, dass die Scooter die Fußgänger auf den Gehwegen gefährden.

Die Verordnung würde auch vorschreiben, dass die E-Scooter nicht auf Gehwegen geparkt werden dürfen. Stattdessen sollen spezielle Parkplätze für E-Scooter eingerichtet werden, um das Chaos in der Stadt zu reduzieren.

Die Regelungen sollen in den nächsten Wochen ausgearbeitet werden und könnten in Kürze in Kraft treten. Die Stadt hofft, dass diese Maßnahmen dazu beitragen, die Sicherheit für alle Verkehrsteilnehmer zu verbessern.
