Free Scooter Parking, City-wide, in a major metropolis is finally here (ALMOST)

By “here” I mean UP THERE, in Toronto. According to this GreenThinkers blog entry:

The city council of Toronto is meeting today to discuss and ultimately decide whether they should allow motorcycles and scooters to park for free.

One reason to allow free parking for these vehicles is to curb the problem of stolen parking receipts from motorcycles.

On the environment-friendly side, motorcycles and scooters create less pollution than their much bigger automobile friends. Therefore, the thinking is that if you allow free parking you will encourage people to use this type of vehicles rather than cars.

I am very very VERY interested to see what comes of this.
