SAN JOSE, Calif. (KGO) -- A battle is brewing over scooters in San Jose. The city met on Tuesday to talk about possible new rules.
The new ordinance city councilmembers discussed would put a cap on how fast the e-scooters can go and also establish a set of fines for users who violate the rules-- including those who ride on sidewalks which is illegal under California state law.

Some are saying e-scooters can help solve some mobility issues in the city, but the Mayor is hoping the council will approve this proposal.
