"Transportation using lightweight vehicles such as bicycles or scooters, especially electric ones that may be borrowed as part of a self-service rental program in which people rent vehicles for short-term use within a town or city.

micromobility is seen as a potential solution to moving people more efficiently around cities"

It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:

Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.

Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.

Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

There are intersections where all lights stay red, giving pedestrians a walk sign in all directions.

There are also intersections where the walk sign turns on before the light goes green.

In both cases, the cyclist still needs to yield to pedestrians, but it seems they'd be legally allowed to ride through the red if it's clear.
