You've probably seen them, new personal boats with electric motors are all the rage.
Whether it's electric bikes, electric scooters or even electric skateboards, they've taken over bike paths and streets across the region.
The security issue still exists, explains RécréOsisko director Sabrina Gilbert.
These machines can reach speeds of more than 30 kilometers per hour, which can pose a danger to users and civilians, according to Sergeant Jean-Raphael Drolet.
If living with motorists, pedestrians and different city regulations can be a challenge, the sergeant advises being well informed to avoid potential conflicts.
And for those who have never tried, they lend it for free, near Lake Ossescu, in Rouyn-Noranda.
This year, RécréoOsisko will celebrate its 15th anniversary and will specifically extend its season until Thanksgiving in order to meet strong user demand.
