Electric scooters and pedestrians

Pavement danger

The Irish Times - Letters to the Editor.

Sir, – Mike Moran (Letters, July 11th) describes cycling in Dublin as a treacherous form of transport when competing against buses, trucks, taxis and supersized four-wheel drives. He is not wrong. See also walking in Dublin. This, too, is a treacherous pursuit when competing against silent electric scooters speeding on pavements with the potential to kill or cause serious injury. – Yours, etc,

BRIAN AHERN,

Clonsilla,

Dublin 15.
