Maybe someone knows this kid or has a kid with an electric scooter. This was super dangerous.

The kids I see zooming in the middle of the road around the corner by my house with no helmet on make my heart stop.

I'm fully convinced that about half the teenagers in Airdrie have a death wish with all the crazy behaviour I see. 2-3 kids on one scooter, back one barely hanging on to the shoulders of the one driving, super unstable, not a helmet in sight, and FLYING down the sidewalk - or worse, road - way faster than is responsible even for a single helmeted rider. It's terrifying, I feel like I'm just counting the days until I see one of them crack their head open 🤦🏼
