And you honestly thought that comparison actually made your argument?  |
No, it was just an off-hand comparison to give perspective.
There are many dangerous things... including walking in the winter.
Calgary saw 282 emergency room visits on ONE DAY last spring, due to slips on ice.
My only point was that the level of concern does not actually match the impact on AHS or the danger scooters pose. We've got pretty limited data, but a "scary" number of 145 emergency room visits over a short period of time. Lets maybe wait it out a little more before we pull the scooters from the streets and see what the data shows us over a longer period of time.
