Scooters

In this April 11, 2018, file photo, two boys push their scooters through a park with green blossoming trees in Frankfurt, Germany.

We saw virtually no people or cars – a surreal scene for residents long accustomed to Rome’s unbearable traffic with its honking cars and scooters whizzing by left and right.

Streets that are usually packed with pedestrians, scooters and vehicular noise have taken on the quiet aura of a holiday.

Delivery men weave between cars on their scooters, carrying meals that are still warm.

Scooters are a popular way to get around in Taiwan.
