Shared electric scooter programs have been growing in popularity as a greener form of transportation in cities suffering from traffic and air pollution. Electric scooters from companies like Bird and Lime can be found in many cities across the country, with users able to unlock and rent them using a smartphone app. While it may be appealing to just hop on a rental Bird scooter or Lime scooter for a ride, riders must consider their safety. It is no surprise that these scooters have also been the subject of a number of personal injury lawsuits. There have even been class action lawsuits against Bird and Lime over scooter safety failures.
