Micromobility using fully-electric two-wheeled vehicles is increasing in cities worldwide. E-scooters, whether shared or privately-owned, provide short door-to-door trips by facilitating the first/last mile stage of journey. They are expected to improve livability reducing harmful emissions and space occupation. In this respect, understanding travel behavior usage patterns essential regulate them appropriately. The purpose study determine individuals' sociodemographic variables,...
