But now, looking at it from where we are today, the negatives are definitely piling up and the positives aren't as clear anymore.
Well, let's go through them, right?
Yeah, and like it's something I've noticed as well.
Like if I'm driving in a 50k zone and I'm at about 50k, scooters are keeping pace with me comfortably.
And anyone can see them now where there are more advanced, sophisticated, let's call them vehicles, which clearly have significant suspension and essentially function almost like a motorcycle.
Yeah.
I'd be in that boat as well now.
What I would say in relation to it is that there are a number of sequential steps that you could take to tighten supply and usage of them before looking to an outright ban, prospectively.
So in terms of a requirement, for example, to register them, like you would register a vehicle.

A special category of motor vehicle, right?
equally requiring that the person is over 16.
