Paris scooter victims: end ‘anarchy in streets’

-

Victims of electric scooter accidents presented demands for stricter rules to end ‘‘anarchy in the streets’’ in a meeting with French transport ministry officials yesterday. A group of about 60 victims said they planned to sue the Paris authoritie­s for negligence over the number of people injured as electric scooters, or trottinett­es, gain popularity. Paris and other French cities are plagued by accidents, often causing serious injuries, as scooter riders collide with pedestrian­s or other vehicles.
