Dock-less electric scooter companies are now worth billions of dollars. Are they really the future of personal transportation, a passing fad, or an invasion of public spaces?

Fun fact: Steve Wozniak (Apple co-founder) created a sport called Segway polo. Where’s scooter polo? And will scooters become Paul Blart’s next preferred mode of transport? Just a few questions for you to sit on this weekend.
You should initiate the Scooter Polo movement in your college(college grounds) and see how the local community loves it. Wont be long before it spreads if its gripping. Also, it'd be deeply significant if you could do a video on healthcare/hospitals and their problems, solutions etc. As always love your vids man.
Another connection to Apple :D
Not banned in Columbus, Ohio. Check your facts.
When u say scooter I din't think of this as scooter. I call moppets as scooters
QR codes finally found a use ? Do you know nothing of china literally everything is done by QR code I gen even register my house to the police with a QR code and this scooter stuff has been in china for years but with bikes that have locking stations etc
At the start of this video I immediately thought; _"Why don't we have those scooters in the country I live in?"_
Then I realized that I live in the Netherlands, where bikes are literally everywhere, including swappable bike services and whatnot. Heck, even the hobos usually have multiple bicycles here.
you entire country is only 41,526 km2 my state is 169,640 km2
population 17,170,000 Netherlands 5,795,483 my state
density 416.7/km2 vs 105/sq mi so it's not the best seeing as my state is much larger then your nation but also less populated, meaning less money and more costs and time.
All information taken from Wikipedia
one last thing I had placed my state density in square miles, let me correct it to square kilometers 40.6/km2.
@@speedy01247 But cities should be similar. But the car-centric American view shaped the cities in a way that now are very anti-pedestrian.
@FancehPants interesting, didn't know that. I wonder whether they'll want to approach this country in a similar matter, or if they have a different idea (if they plan on actually doing stuff here), then.
I was wondering when this is gonna be a thing in my country. I already see tons of people riding their personal electric scooters. Then I realized that I live in Romania and that 1% of scooters affected by theft would be made sure to turn into 100% by the gypsies which would make city wide campaigns of stealing every single scooter on every single sidewalk.
mrkiky LOL, that's the exact same prejudice some Swedish people have about Romanians xD
Update: BIRD has laid off 406 employees and LIME has laid off about 100 and got rid of 12 markets,
Who would have thought a pandemic that keeps people inside would hugely damage a transportation company.
The Bird stock is down 84% YOY as of 5-6-22.

You could work for EA with reasoning like that ;)
I love how tiny scooters are "litter" but huge heavy pieces of metal - cars, literally everywhere, are OK.
Because people didn’t come in and dump a ton of cars over night with out the city realising.
Lifespan of a rental scooter vs. lifespan of passenger car? The abysmally short scooter lifespan makes them environmental nightmares.
@@sunday8979 you think electric scooters are worst for the environment than cars?
Sunday They’re pretty much just made out of steel and recyclable plastic. I bet the average life time is about a year, they’ve been in my city for almost a year and they are getting really good usage.
Jack Emanuel Let’s just forget about the lithium battery and how easy it is to dispose of those things and will you please just google “average lifespan of a ride share scooter.”
What's next… driverless scooters?
Well, considering the fact that some Japanese dudes just invented self-balancing driverless bikes, I wouldn't put scooters off the automation list
one-seat self-balancing and driving bikes with roof. Let's conquer the world, tod
I'd invest in that lol

In a street, far far away, there were scooters...
I just discovered this channel and im totally in love with the type of content and style. You are brilliant. Never stop making those please!
Hey Polymatter, quick sidenote, in Asia they use QR-codes a lot!
Especially China. These Lime or Bird bikes and scooters with QR codes are copying companies in China.
Could not agree more, the analysis of Polymatter is also limited, because in many European and Asian (indeed China) countries, they already have it or have bike systems, which is even healthier than those scooters.
Also, this analysis is limited since it focuses on the U.S. where public transportation sucks.
I loved the video, but it felt kinda off and got triggered by him saying no one uses the QR code.
Not Asia, just China, and the companies from China.
Kung Fu Kenny public transportation in parts of the US is some of the best in the world. In other parts of the US like Alaska, it’s unsafe and not needed because of its low population density and huge landmass. Depends on where you are in the US that public transportation sucks. Where I live, it’s wonderful. Also, there’s not a single public transportation system in the world that doesn’t suffer from the last mile problem
No man, in many Asian countries... Taiwan, Malaysia, South-Korea I have witnessed it myself so yeah.

DarkuJ The magic of stock footage
I'd like to see a single example where stock footage or stock photos ACTUALLY represent the real world. :P
Funny how you used Seattle as an example, since currently electric scooters are banned there.
reallyyyy they are banned in Seattle????
@@manujohn99 As of current, the city is actually in talks of legalizing them to be ridden. I'm not a big fan of it mainly due to their ties to Uber and the fact that they chewed up profit from an industry I am a part of.
@@thevikingwarrior11 what part of industry are you?
@@manujohn99 I give leisure pedicab rides. It may seem like I'm part of the tourism industry, but I do play a pretty vital role of getting folks out of traffic jams during major events like concerts and ballgames, but also rush hour times as well. I can beat any Uber or Lyft car usually ten times out of eleven when there is heavy traffic due to the fact that Seattle has a pretty immaculate infrastructure made of bike paths.
@@thevikingwarrior11 How much do you normally charge for this pedicab ride?

Do a video on Discord. That'd be nice.

Good job!
Your videos are also too good
the "litter bikes" are useless in Urban cities. In London, the wheel lock gets broken by kids to get unlimited rides
They have GPS attached to them and whenever the company sees suspicious movement, they send out police or some kind of alarm. I moved on of the bird scooters that was blocking the sidewalk and it screamed the whole 5 feet I moved it.
@@magmagon5572 just keep doing that profit will get cut.
@@magmagon5572 Some bikes amazingly have no GPS and use the app pin instead.
@@magmagon5572 That's not entirely true. I used to work for Limebike so let me break it down real quick.
First, while there are GPS's, those GPSs are located IN the wheel lock. Knock the box off, the bike is no longer trackable.
Second, when the bike/scooter/whatever is screaming at you that its going to call the police, that's a bluff. None of them have the capability to do that. While suspicious movement does show up on the App, the companies are already stretched to the limit just keeping up with the pace of operations. It's actually more economical to just write those bikes/scooters off as a loss and move on.
The 1% of bikes lost to theft is pretty accurate. However a much greater percentage are lost to vandalism. People really got their jollys tossing limebikes in lakes, on train tracks, in high ways, spray painted, ect ect ect. About 10% of bikes are being trashed maliciously.
The scooters don't seem to have as much of a issue here. I think it's because they take up less room. Other then people constantly knocking them over, vandalism and theft rates are lower, and usage rates are a lot higher. That's why you've seen bicycles vanish, and replaced by scooters. They cost more and have way more overhead in charging costs, but their ROI is way better.
@@campkira there is no profit, they cost about 500 to make, and they make about 5 a day in revenue before they break in average 30 days, losing about 350 per scooter. The only money coming in is from investors that will never see their money back
Scan the QR-codes "I guess we finally found a good use for those" . Nice :')
Not going to lie, at first glance I read it as ‘Why school shooters are worth billions’.
damn if only i was worth billions
They kind of are. The media milks them for all they’re worth.
Great thinker here
This misread title makes me think about the real revenue model behind Korean pop entertainment companies: Sasaengs. Saesangs? (what ever way it's speled lol!).
If you divide the networks' annual revenue by the average amount of time they dedicate to school shooters in their news cycle and tally them all up together you might find in the US at least, that might be truer than you realize.
People love sensationalist news and can't afford to pass up the latest thing that is being talked about so school shooters are literally worth billions for american news corporations by a certain amount of time, could be 1 year, 3 or 6 I haven't crunched the numbers.
That pile of bikes in China made me so sad and angry
Now think about the billions (for most) useless cars that are in our world.... and a lot won't be even recycled properly when their life will be finished (and a lot won't even last long, because "buying a new car is fun")...
Our current world is a giant waste.
They could be exported and repaired. $$$!

Great stuff, love how smooth you pull the sponsors.
This video is so awesome!!!! I'm excited and inspired by the quality and level of information within.
Thank you PolyMatter!
I just discovered these last week and used them with friends for the first time, as bird and lime came to my city (Vienna) only very recently. It's really interesting to see how such a huge number of those scooters entered the city's ecosystem in that extremely short period of time (less than two weeks it seemed like) and already is very commonly being used in the city Center by many people.
My personal experience with them was that, although it not being a massive step further in convince (since Vienna, as many European cities has outstanding public transport), it still is a nice and fun timesaver, especially in the inner city districts, that I can see being utilised by quite a number of people (especially by those working in the city).
It's going to be very interesting to see how these companies manage to implement a system that fits American cities as well as European cities, which are massively different in terms of urban planing and sociocultural factors as well.
Thanks for making this video mate! It truly is an Interesting topic with a lot of positive potential for car-less urban development as far as I am concerned.
Wow, what a break down! Thank you for posting this!
And this is why I love your channel, I had no idea about this, did not really care about it, yet came out extremely interested in this topic and now have something to talk about with others. Thank you!
Great summary you have done.
jokes aside and all QR codes are actually a huge thing in Asia
China isn't Asia
Cant u pay for shit with QR in asia?
@@Soosss yes you can
@@hijack69 Well anywhere in Japan/Korea with a lot of Chinese tourists has QR codes too, it might actually be possible to survive in Tokyo only using wechat.
@@hijack69 so, not just China. QR codes are huge in India as well. Unlock cycles, pay for goods and all that.
I love scooting 🛴 in Austin and I don't have a car so it's very convenient. But 2 billion valuation? A little high if you ask me.
And for that reason.... I'm out
shatley123 yesss I love it in Austin it’s also fun

It will be 0 billion once cities keep banning them.
Nicely put together.
Great job! A very thorough and thoughtful video.
These scooters are definitely NOT banned in Columbus, OH. Bird, Lime, Lyft and one or two more companies have scooters all over the Ohio State campus.
Lime bikes just started popping up in my city. Since then, my opinion of them has soured.
nice pun
You are everywhere :O
They’ve been in the Bay Area for quiet a while thanks (or not thanks) to the proximity to the Silicon Valley. Too many bike in the middle of a sidewalk or blocking streets.
I personally think cities should offer a bounty of say, $20 a scooter, and each week burn the fuckers.
it's not neccesarily the scooters, its the riders. if they're anything like cyclists (looking at you, deliveroo riders) who have no concern for the rules of the road and insist on riding in the middle of the street at 15mph in a 30/40/60 zone, ill take great pleasure ruining their balance with my wing mirror. done it before, will do it again. companies like this just aggrivate the problem.
and before you suggest i "scoot to work/school/whatever" instead of driving, my job REQUIRES the use of a car, and am actually timed on trips to improve efficiency. right now where i live thankfully we don't have these menaces, but we do have lycra louts and they are the bane of my work.
TL;DR
the riders need to be shot.
Awesome breakdown as usual !!
Almost watched all your videos last night :D very informative. Keep it up
I’m always taken back by how walk-shy modern humans are, I have a bike and a car in a very hilly city but I walk or run to and from everywhere within 5 miles, it’s not hard, it doesn’t take that long, you can listen to podcasts, audiobooks etc.
It’s faster to bike or use a scooter. Alot of fun too
My commute to my warehouse job is 4 to 6 times faster if I just drive. I’m not walk shy, I just want to save time and energy.
My body is fucked from working my life away
a lot of cities aren't built for walking, distances are massive, and the roads are not made with pedestrians in mind, a lot of them not even having proper side walks. I've seen videos of people trying to walk in american suburbs, it's hell.
@@aburrki6732 but walking is so healthy
I havent been on a scooter since 2010
yes
Well ur quite the wholesome lad
Wholesome Lad Haven't been in a scooter since I WAS BORN.
I alway thought it for girl and young kids since walking would be faster. Anyway, it come and go.
We were all curious.
Well explained, very thorough. Nice!
Amazing information man
Man! your videos make my day.
This is a very interesting topic. See, I skate to work. And I don't skate all the way - I live in a different town to where I work. It's about a 40 minute commute by bus. But as you pointed out in most cases bus are only fully convenient for a few people using them. The rest has to walk to a bus stop go catch them and then walk the rest of the way from where they get off. That's where my skateboarding solution comes in. Not only is it affordable, ecologic and a great exercise for the morning, but it also makes people look at you like you're 12. However I think it's the best "filler" transport for these short routes home->bus stop, final bus stop->work (etc.) The best part is that you can grab a skateboard into your hand and go shopping, cross a street or walk up a hill.
The biggest downside is the environment. You need smooth, flat surfaces to be able to skate, and in the US it's usually not a problem, however the British sidewalks near my workplace are 50/50 smooth and terribly cracked and uneven surfaces.
I would like to encourage EVERYONE to try and find their own transport of this kind - if we all did this (use buses to get to hubs near our workplaces and then bikes, scooters, skateboards or jetpacks), we could make those electric and save our planet from degrading as quick as it is at the moment.
Unfortunately the comfort of going from place A to B at your own pace whilst enjoying a lone ride is currently too embossed into our society and I don't think I, or anyone for that matter, could convince people to shift. Maybe a size reduction would do the cars some good? Instead of wasting 3 empty seats on your journey you'd just have one?
I think that this idyllic scenario will only happen if:
1: it's too late and now we HAVE to get rid of cars because we'd ran out of resources
2: the infrastructure of new cities would force this onto citizens by eliminating public roads from town centres completely - making it a bus, tram etc only zone
3: someone comes up with a way of convincing people that we need to do this ASAP. some modern-day Jesus like, say, Elon Musk.
Any case - tl;dr (too long, didn't read), but for those of you who have, let me know by discussing this in replies or liking my comment.
All the best people. I hope we can save our planet and children from dying!!
I do the same thing except with an electric skateboard. I ride into the nearby train station and pick the light rail to downtown. and continue exploring from there. I don't have to deal with parking hassles or traffic

This is the best breakdown I have seen of this issue, I wish i had seen this before I made my video about them haha
Too bad no one cares
This scooters are awesome! I live in LA and its really cool that u can go relatively fast from santa monica to venice beach in no time!! I love that
Honestly brilliant.
Something everyone thought was cool but knew they were going to ride once and never again (as was the case for me). That coupled with the fact that the market for electric scooters died after it went out of style, thus killing prices. No research and development required (at least not from the ground up) and a whole bunch of cheap parts lying in a warehouse somewhere made this a breeding ground for start ups.
one of the jump bikes broke for my friend while he rode it
Well done!
nice video very insightful
Sounds like a bubble that will colapse aaaaaaaaaany time now
Ashiente this pop will be nice to see, already happened in China

Scooter companies: Worth billions
2020: Nah
Delicious 60fps. So smooth.
From my experience using dockless bicycles, I found that most of the time the bicycle I need is at my destination! Makes sense since for home/work commuting the end of most first miles is typically a metro station, and the end of most last miles is not my home. So I found it not useful for the first mile and last mile problem. The probability of access to the service is too low to factor in any trip planning.
I think dockless would do better when trip start and end points are less aligned and more evenly distributed. Trips within a CBD during working hours perhaps?
I would love to see you make a video about capitalism, socialism, and other economic systems.
Check some other history channels.
They’re all flawed.
That video will be useless.
@Really? You just described state capitalism. Socialism is when the workers own the means of production.
the issue is people have vastly different opinions on the definition of those words, meaning no one will agree except for those whose opinion you are showing (unless you are opposed to that opinion) It's useless to argue if one person thinks the word means fascist and the other thinks it means democratic. (of course once again both those words also are being argued about as well, so perhaps my explanation is useless)
What if people just bought their own scooters?
Underrated comment lol considering they are $250 each
You have to lock/store it, charge it, find a plug for that, go back to where you left it, maintain/replace it...
Apparently for many people it's not worth the trouble.
But it could be a different story if it was supported by city infrastructure.
@dandanthetaximan The ease of maintenance isn't the big seller. It's that you can start and stop whenever. You would never abandon a personal bike once you reach your stop, and that means it's stuck with you till you get back home, but you can do that if some city-wide infrastructure is managing the system.
I had 2 electric scooters back when I was younger and just brought it into my apartment no biggie!
Out of towners who visit and have to park far away from there destination due to terrible parking in downtown cities use these scooters
These scooters appeared overnight in my town (Sweden). I've never used them, but lots of teenagers commuting by bus or similar, who don't have bikes, use them.
I live in Seattle and deadass saw the thumb nail and was like that map looks like Seattle
New Zealand recently got these scooters as well. New Zealand's scooters are made by lime.

These things are huge where I go to school at ucla. Everything on our campus is on a hill so it helps to have this option. I feel like these things are great for college towns/cities since a lot of students don't wanna bring their car and have to pay for parking for the year, especially in a heavily congested city like Los Angeles
There's one company called Veoride that's been designing their own scooters and theirs have removable "cartridge" batteries. They have someone come around in a van and swap out batteries and take care of any reported maintenance needs (and then re-park them safely). There are probably others that have started or will start doing this as well, as it makes sense.

If I may ask, how do you make your animated videos? Like which software?
I really liked the presentation
just a year later the bubble burst. talking about these so called "infographic videos"
Your research is just amazing
👍🏻👍🏻🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
no it's not. He says that Columbus banned them. They are not banned they are just illegal to ride them on the sidewalk. A simple google search can show you this information. If he can't even bother to do that basic research then how can you trust the rest of this?

I was just trying to say the same…
How do you feel about your president rolling back policies that once benefited China and allowed it to grow? He's now turning reverting it back into a typical dictatorship with his new policies and extending his reign. Which means a massive step backwards for your country unless Chinese actually do something about it. You can basically say goodbye to Western goods and even meat as much of that was imported.
@Ryaken Everyone is uncomfortable and many were shocked by the elimination of 10-year presidency. But VPN is still usable (I know the gov can block whenever they want), visas were still issued normally (unless you have unexplained assets like bribe money). I don't think Xi will go any further on that road considering how many whispers on the internet already are. Xi's anti-corruption campaign seems to be a success (mid to low level corruption decreased drastically, unlike previous presidents' similar effort only focused on higher level thus making them seems like a tactic to secure power). Overall, it is still too early to say what Xi is going to be in the future, but that guy did some good in the past, I would give him a B+ (B for Hu, C for Jiang, and A for Deng).
Huh, they went into Poland by storm, starting with Lime 2 months ago and now we have about 4 companies in the city I live in- I guess we could have seen this coming!
Got a citation at my university campus for riding my electric scooter. Going to fight both citations in court (yes both). I got it argued off last year in juvenile court & the judge there said just tell them I overruled it, you're just getting to class and it has a brake.
The officers who stopped me and gave me tickets will both show up in court "adult court" they say. I'm glad this video was made and that this is the future. I honestly love the scooter, its simple, no hassle like the bicycle and you can make a small side amount of money from charging :) Love your videos PolyMatter.
Great video! But I live in Columbus and these are not banned here, just banned from being used on the sidewalk. They also have restricted areas, like Ohio State campus on game day. These restricted areas are software/GPS enforced and the scooters simply will stop in these areas.
He might be referring to Bexley banning them
Lime came to my city this week. Literally overnight, there were 5 scooters at every single bus stop, and you see half a dozen of them parked outside homes and businesses everywhere you go. In a few days. It’s insane.
Which city?
its awful in my city. we have lime bicycle and there are everywhere an no one use them, so usually they are lying on the sidewalk and it makes just walking harder on the sidewalk
I live near Seattle and its always weird when anyone mentions the area because it rarely ever happens.. great video tho!
this sir, is a very clever vid. thx!
