Electric scooters return to downtown STL

Posted online

Electric scooters are returning to downtown St. Louis after a nearly 10-month ban.

Bird Co. has new rules in place. There will be no more than 50 rentable rides, scooters will be turned off between the hours of 7 p.m. and 7 a.m., only adults will be able to ride and top speeds will be reduced.

The ban came last year after unsupervised youths were riding around and engaging in disruptive and sometimes criminal behavior. Shootings among minors led to two teenage girls being hospitalized and another being injured.
