Lime scooters return to Roanoke, touted as socially-distant form of transportation
ROANOKE, Va. Despite the COVID-19 outbreak, Lime scooters are officially back in action in Roanoke. The company set up about 100 scooters in the Roanoke area as a way to provide a socially distant form of transportation during the pandemic. Use hand sanitizer, make sure that youre wearing a mask. But then also, as you ride, do your best to make sure that youre being socially distant and youre staying far away from people, minding the rules of the road and just being a conscientious resident, said Robert Gardener with Lime. Lime is also launching a free 30-minute ride for all essential workers through a new service called Lime-Aid.
