I'm moving to a new apartment that is about 2 miles from the office. The route to the office has sidewalks and no major highways to cross so it is relatively safe for pedestrians. I have been toying with the idea of buying an electric scooter for my daily commute. From a practical point of view, this would reduce wear on the car as well as gas expenses. From an idealistic point of view, I'd like to be responsible for one less car sitting in traffic and less pollution. Overall this will not have much of an impact, but it is a start (plus I could charge up the scooter at work, let them pay the electricity bill heh heh).
Has anyone done this? Would you recommend it? Any particular models of scooters that are not too expensive (under $500) but still well-built and reliable?
Obviously, this would be subject to the weather, but I still have a car for days where it is excessively hot/cold or rainy, or for trips to the grocery store and other things where I need a "real" vehicle.
