As a wheelchair user, I frequently come across e-scooters left on pathways, creating unnecessary obstacles for those with mobility impairments and parents with prams. Technology is available to fix this issue, but bureaucracy is getting in the way of practical solutions to address the problem. Ario’s remote parking feature offers a real and immediate improvement for disabled people navigating urban spaces. Ario’s three-wheeled e-scooters make it hard to topple and can be remotely parked by an operator when left in inappropriate places, helping ensure pathways stay clear. But in August, NZ Transport Agency Waka Kotahi ruled that this feature doesn’t meet current regulations, leading to it being disabled. CCS Disability Action has joined the call for NZTA to reinstate Ario's remote reparking function. Check out the link below.
