Cities often rely heavily on electric scooters to carry their residents across city streets, but electric scooters have also been cited as safer when compared to conventional taxi services. According to the study, scooters are associated with greater risk factors for heart-related diseases, such as stroke and multiple sclerosis, and they were also associated with increased rates of injuries related to injury.

"A recent study found that the use of electric scooters are associated with higher levels of asthma and bronchitis," the authors write. "However, the authors note that there is no convincing evidence that scooters and scooters are associated with lower respiratory infections, and they are also associated with lower risk of cancer and premature mortality."

One of the reasons for the increase in scooter use in recent years is due to the increasing popularity of electric scooters.

"Scooters have become increasingly popular as a safe alternative to taxis, and it's now becoming more common than ever to use scooters for public transportation," says Peter M. Cramer, professor emeritus at the University of Pennsylvania and one of the study's authors, and a member of the Department of Health and Human Services' Transportation and Public Health Program. "We see our role in saving lives in our cities as a potential driver of death."

The study adds to a growing body of evidence on the role of scooters in health care. In the United States, more than half of all new car accidents are caused by scooters, and a quarter of these are attributed to collisions between scooters and non-scooter drivers.The Canadian Press

MONTREAL -- The first thing to notice from his Montreal debut Thursday was that he didn't miss an opportunity to strike.

A three-minute blast from the right side of the faceoff circle just above his glove by Montreal goalie Matt Moulson, who had a strong first period performance with the club's first victory over the Leafs since 2007-08, was the only goal he scored.

And if he would have scored the last time, he would have had it a few more times.

"I didn't want to give up the game, but it didn't go as I thought I was going to," Moulson said after scoring the final goal during the first period.

It was a one-goal cushion.

"I didn't get a lot of chances. It was my first start this year," he added.

The second period was the first time Moulson
