IN NZ WE CALL THEM MOTOR SCOOTERS BUT IN AMERICA THEY'RE APPARENTLY CALLED MOBILITY SCOOTERS

um mobility scooters?

haha lol we don't have them as much as you think. In fact, we mock the ones that use them.

...somehow though I think it's because I'm in the "underweight" part of town

Yeah, they are in most big box stores now -.- Fat people are so lazy. Ugh.
They're there for the physically disabled, but all I see are morbidly obese people using them.

Wow you're being...really judgmental. How do you know that those people struggle to walk for whatever reason, and therefore their exercise is limited and then they gain weight? Or their medical issue causes them to gain a lot of weight (such as glandular issues), so they have trouble walking and need a scooter? Jeez, don't be so quick to judge these people you don't know.

Anyway I only see them in stores and around campus because my school lends them to anyone that hurts themselves instead of them using crutches all the way across our massive campus o_O they're not really that widely used, haha.

It just looks like they're everywhere, but they're really not!

At least in my part of the country. Most retailers have them, but they're usually only used by the elderly or those with health issues that are either caused by their weight or that are the cause of their weight.

We have those things because America is just cuwul that way seriously I mean like what?
But no, we need transportation, they just so happen to be transportation, we have them...
Like, they look cool.

Okay okay, we don't have a good reason :<

EDIT: Wait, what's a mobility scooter? O.o
