New Tool to Report Unsafe E-Scooter Riding | Portland News
Description
Washington County’s sheriff’s office just launched a new way to report dangerous e-scooter and e-bike behavior — and it’s a game-changer for safety. With a fresh checkbox on their traffic complaint form, residents can now flag reckless riding like speeding, lane-hogging, or even wheelies and throwing objects. The move comes as complaints spike post-school, especially in neighborhoods like Hartung Farms, where HOA leaders are watching teens zoom around lakes on these devices. Law enforcement struggles to catch offenders, but this new reporting tool helps them spot hotspots and respond smarter. Just remember: use it for non-emergencies — dial 911 if someone’s in danger.
