En elsparkcykel kan kräva dubbelt så lång stoppsträcka som en vanligt cykel. Det har forskare på Chalmers kommit fram till med en pilotstudie. Nu uppmanas trafikanter att öva på att köra elsparkcykel...
Love them or hate them, electric #scooters are an ever more common sight in cities worldwide, and their usage is only on the up. Now, new research explores how they can move through #urban #environments safely, and how they might differ from #bicycles: https://t.co/C6YlevyVo9
