Episode Details

A new Perth study reveals private e-scooter riders are ditching cars and public transport for faster, cheaper commutes — and it’s not just the young crowd. With nearly 250 riders surveyed, the research shows older adults are joining the trend too, using e-scooters for efficiency, eco-consciousness, and even fun. While shared programs are paused, personal ownership is booming. But challenges remain — especially with pedestrian and cyclist safety. The solution? Better infrastructure, dedicated paths, and smarter integration with public transit to turn e-scooters into a seamless, city-wide mobility tool.
