Every once in a while there's a real challenge. Rental e-bikes and e-scooters currently.

The problem is that these are crippled by regulations that only apply to the new transportation modes.

In Los Angeles we put GPS speed limiters and parking enforcement on scooters while letting cars park practically anywhere. You can drive 80mph through a school zone and nobody will do anything unless a cop happens to be there when you do it.

It feels like an antitrust lawsuit waiting to happen.
