    E bikes rampaging Toronto streets

    Recently, I've noticed two of these driving on sidewalks in Aurora, mostly in the neighborhoods east of Bayview. It's electric, but is it still considered a scooter? Looks more like a mini car to me. What law says about these I wander..

    Language Learning - just tell it to switch to Spanish (for example), and ask it to correct errors, offer new words, and suggest better ways to sound like a native speaker. Then switch to the mic and talk to her - amazing! I’m surprised it’s still free...
