Yet another person on a dockless electric scooter has been injured.  

Officials say the person was hit by a car early this morning on East 7th Street.

Injuries are said to be non-life threatening.  The driver of the vehilce repartedly stayed at the scene to speak with police.

The City of Austin is currently working with the CDC on a study looking at the impacts dockless scooters are having.  That information will be used to craft a new safety ordinance next year.
