Tesla-induced pileup involved driver-assist tech, government data reveals

[Hestia]

7. Back in 2005, our 2nd vehicle was an e-scooter - DH used it to go to work, then stop off at

the grocery store on the way home. Loved it. The problem is/was the battery charger. The chargers were considered new tech at the time and finally put the company out of business because every one they sold, each unit required sending out 3 or more new chargers. We still have it, figuring that surely today we can get a new system to refurbish the scooter. Just been too lazy to really look into it.

But, yes, very handy as a 2nd vehicle if you don't live in a hilly, rainy area.

We were lucky to live in such an area and DH could go to work through residential areas and only cross 2 busy streets. When motorcyclists saw him, they would put him in the middle of the pack to protect him from other drivers.
