BC tells students they can't ride motorized scooters indoors

Boston College is out with formal regulations about scooters with motors that include such common-sense rules as yielding to pedestrians and not driving them hellbent for leather while on campus, the BC Heights reports. But also:

Students living in residence halls can store their scooters inside, but they must carry and not ride the scooters while indoors, the email states.

Bikes

So they can ride bikes in the hallways?

Are the restrictions as to battery powered, or gasoline, or two stroke engine powered? The smell of some engines is pretty strong.

Seriously?

I'm betting those are already so restricted.

Probably in the 1900s, along with rollerskates.

New tech needs new rules.

And you can't roller skate in a buffalo herd.

But ya can be happy if you've a mind to.

YOU'RE ALLOWED TO USE THE FULL HALLWAY!!

Not those kind of scooters

We're talking the things that look like Razors, only usually painted black. Remember a few years ago when they started showing up all over Brookline and Cambridge? Those sort of things.

On the other hand, they don't

On the other hand, they don't say you can't ride a Harley in the corridors, so my weekend plans are still on.

If they don’t…
