Chair Abreu asks for estimate of illegal motorized scooters
Abreu asks for an estimate of illegal motorized scooters on city streets, and DOT says without registration requirements there is no single source of truth.
And is it the same with respect to an estimate on illegal motorized scooters?
Any breakdown on that on our city streets?
And how did you arrive at that estimate?
So, Chair, I think this actually speaks to one of the important reasons for this council hearing today, which is we have a lot of information on car ownership because of all of the registration required at the state level.
Without that information for these modes, we don't end up having...
Please, please, if you would like to express yourself, please use hand gestures.
And again, if you're in violation of that, you will be escorted by the sergeant at arms.
My apologies for the interruption.
Thank you.
But to speak to sort of the tracking of how we reach vehicle numbers, be they commercial, privately owned, or others, often that comes from a state DMV.
It has a much more accurate data pathway because of the license requirement.
This class, without any...
any license requirement, there isn't a single source of truth where they are captured in terms of the amount that are on the streets or that are sold.
