I always thought adults looked silly on scooters. But the older... (I like to think wiser) I've realized those little scooters are an incredibly cost effective way to scoot around town. My son never got his drivers license. He's considering doing so now and investing in a scooter to get around town as he's getting closer to graduating and moving on with his own life. I'm not sure on the laws where we live but I think it might be the perfect fix to independence for him. At least for now that is.
