As Vespa Popularity Rises, City May Try To Make Vroom

The city needs to resolve the parking issues for the scooterists. Right now if you park legally the chances are your scooter will get knocked over by cars "parking by feel" pretty soon.

If you park on the side walk the scooter will get ticked or towed.

So, right now this a no-win situation for scooterists.
