I believe that the sidewalk is public property. When someone ends their trip, they have to take a photo to confirm they properly parked. If there's people parking on the public sidewalk here, that means there is a demand for this program.

I'm glad Flushing got this program. It's a good thing that the apps ask you to upload your driver's license as a way to confirm you have an understanding of roadway safety. There's been too many car accidents in Flushing resulting in deaths of young children unfortunately, I wonder how they still have their licenses.

There's a lot of sidewalk space, there is congestion because of cars. Bikes or scooters are not causing that congestion. The bike lane along Sanford had already been established, so it matches well with the scooter program.

I live right by this corner and the area is generally apartments, 2-3 family housing. Not everyone has a car or a home and people need to realize that sidewalks are public. There is often a scooter that is left at the corner of a sidewalk, but I consider it similar as if someone parked their bike on the sidewalk. In general people on this block typically use Lime scooters. And overall I think this project benefits the working people.

Bad spot for parking . Sidewalk is narrow , has patch of grass and a tree. Google maps image is out dated . Please restrict parking.

This is the fifth time one of these scooters has been left on the sidewalk in front of my house blocking access to the wheelchair cut on my corner or the sidewalk. Every day there are anywhere from 1 to 7 of these things just left up and down the block, blocking the sidewalk or the street and sometimes I find them on my front lawn. This is a poorly organized and implemented "program" that was thrust on my neighborhood against the desires of the residents, the Community Board and the City Council representative from the area. We are the taxpayers and we are being disrespected and ignored. In political terms, disenfranchised - a very bad idea in an already charged election year. How dare the city treat the people who pay for all the city does - the actual taxpaying residents - this way. And as to the DOT Commissioner Ydanis Rodriguez, what would your response have been when you were a City Counsel member if something like this was foist upon you constituents against your expressed support!! I report anywhere upwards of 20 escooters just left all over the area every morning I have the time to take the pictures and load them to the portal. Look at this map and you will see how many I have reported and this is just @ 4 days worth. Its just a matter of time until someone trips and falls over one of these things and who will they sue-the homeowner! It should be the escooter company, the person who last rented the escooter, and the city! This is a terrible program. All the rhetoric about its value does not apply to this area - to whit, they are placed in areas underserved by public transportation. Just not true. we have the subway, multitudinous buses, the LIRR, taxies, UBERS, etc. These just add congestion and danger since they are often driven on the sidewalk (supposedly not allowed) and are driven with little regard for traffic laws. Consider this a failed experiment and end it now. Or if it must stay revamp it to address all these issues and not be a nuisance to the residents.

This intersection defines a core transportation node in the route between Eastern Flushing (aka Auburndale) and greater Bayside area, bordered by the Cleaview

This is the third time I have had one of these abandoned in front of my house. Twice this week. Thus program is mismanaged and has to stop or be seriously revamped. They are being abandoned all over the neighborhood blocking sidewalks, intersections and streets. They are dangerous especially in the dark.
