Besides security issues, scooter services have another big issue. They don't care about their customers.

I drove few times on a bird, and enjoyed the experience. Few months ago (right before the winter) they've changed the wheels to plastic wheels since many birds had a flat tire which cost the company a lot I believe.

The plastic wheel is likely to slide when you try to brake when the ground is wet.

Doing a move like this right before the winter starts showed me how money oriented bird is
