I don't know about Paris, but the from other cities I've seen it's probably the general poor behaviour of rental scooter hirers that's the problem. Ignoring any dangerous riding the scooters are just so poorly parked - cluttering sidewalks, falling into roads etc. I'm an occasional e-scooter hirer when a tourist and sometimes after a night out in my home town, but I'm 50/50 if they should be banned in my city.

Rental companies should take more of an effort to penalise users that park and drive poorly if they want to continue operating.

> So poorly parked

Cars are well parked in Paris but way more bulky and streets are unpleasant and dangerous because of them : https://www.google.com/maps/@48.8857511,2.3873659,3a,75y,80....

The scooters are parked like that by the companies themselves too, at least where I live. Why would they penalize people for doing the same?
