I am curious about your rationale of throwing scooters in the river. Are you not aware that the batteries will leak and pollute the river?

"You're a meanie to the fishies and dolphins who use a filthy drainage ditch masquerading as a river to spawn their entire species." You're clearly not an engineer, don't understand how these are manufactured, nor how these are life-cycled... with bloody GPS on them 24x7. Go away until you have something meaningful to add that doesn't sound like you actually create a 60k-page environmental impact report before putting on your shoes made from fossil fuels, animals, and/or (gasp!) "chemicals." > I am curious about your rationale of throwing scooters in the river. No, you're not, you're a do-nothing troll.

The grunts collecting these machines don't get paid enough to fish them out of the river. They're gonna get marked as missing and the company will replace them with a new one. Edit: For all I know they could end up building rescue robots that also get thrown into the river.
