GPS may not be accurate enough, especially in urban areas. And the current geofence isn't detailed enough. For example: it doesn't account for things like a wheelchair ramp from a private property intersecting with a public walkway.

In San Francisco, scooters were picked up by the city and impounded. I don't see why it's unfair for private property owners to do the same.




Anyone who's parked a car often in dense areas knows the distance between legal and illegal parking is as small as the width of the bumper you stuck into the fire lane.

GPS just can't help with that.
