Should Pukekohe have it's own mobility scooter lanes?

Reporter Franklin County News

Pukekohe pavements have become a nightmare for mobility scooter owners and are forcing some elderly to stay inside, too scared to drive them.
Some are suggesting installing special mobility scooter lanes.
What do you think of this idea?
