So what catches my attention first is exactly which vehicles this covers. 'Electric scooter' gets lumped together as one category, but output and speed range vary wildly. I'm all for scooters becoming part of the fabric of the city, but if the rules are sloppy, even people riding responsibly end up paying the price. I just hope they draw the lines carefully.

Worried the registration cost burden on riders might end up slowing adoption momentum.

First time I've seen the word 'emplacamiento' - so that refers to the registration system.

That lawless feel around micromobility — every city seems to be dealing with the same problem.

How many electric scooters were registered in CDMX before registration became mandatory?

How strictly they actually enforce fines once the grace period ends is what determines real effectiveness.

A mandatory plate registration makes sense given things like tracking after an accident.
