Good morning, I'm David Greene. In some cities, people have fallen in love with motorized scooters. You can rent them then ditch them anywhere. But some residents are sick of them.

Now, vandalism is against the law. Was I angry a scooter was left in my driveway? Yes. Yes, I was. I just moved it - ever so gently. It's MORNING EDITION. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.
