Many with MS would be unable to ride an electric scooter but as we navigate outside in our own way--walking with or without a cane or walker or crutches or in a wheelchair--we are often unstable enough to need to use extra caution now that these scooters are becoming so common. If you were in danger of being hit by someone on a skateboard in the past, you might be in much greater danger of colliding with someone on a scooter now.
