Oakland, California has some of the worst streets in America, and getting worse. There are Limes and Birds on every corner of downtown.

I live near Downtown Oakland and have yet to see one of these Scooters on the road -- so far the primary use case in Oakland seems to be teenagers blasting around Lake Merritt on the weekends.
There were 6 on each corner of Broadway & Grand at 7am today.
According to the Lime app, there are at least 50 Lime-S scooters within 1km of the corner of Broadway and Telegraph right now. There are 9 outside 12th St BART alone.
