The viability of the pilot program in the Bronx, will lead the way for future scooter-share programs in Brooklyn, Manhattan and Queens, discusses Bronx scooter crash lawyer. New York City and the Bronx E-Scooter Pilot Rental Program Update from Bronx NYC Scooter Crash Lawyer The viability of the pilot program in the Bronx, will lead the way for future scooter-share programs in Brooklyn, Manhattan and Queens, discusses Bronx scooter crash lawyer. NEW YORK, March 02, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- NYC DOT’s Scooter-Share Pilot Program is Coming to The Bronx For a Test Drive Updates Cyclist and Attorney Glenn Herman! Manhattan based cyclist and attorney Glenn Herman, a NYC scooter crash lawyer has an update for you. What you need to know if you are injured in a scooter or E-Bike crash, now that New York is finally offering an e-scooter rental program. Long in the works, the New York City Department of Transportation (DOT) announced last week that a pilot e-scooter share program will be coming to some eastern Bronx neighborhoods. The pilot program, expected to be launched in late spring, will run for a minimum of one year and cover neighborhoods from Eastchester to Co-op City. Pilot E-Scooter Rental Program It is estimated that as many as 2,000 – 3,000 e-scooters will be brought to the East Bronx during Phase 1 with an increase to as many as 4,000 – 6,000 in a potential second phase in 2022 that will include Throggs Neck, Parkchester and Soundview. A benefit for e-scooter users as well as all cyclists is that the DOT plans to add new bike lanes to the neighborhoods where the pilot program is being launched. New York City Council Member Ydanis Rodriguez, Chairman of the Transportation Committee said that “[m]icromobility is the future of New York City. . . this e-scooter pilot program will pave the way towards eventually bringing e-scooters into other areas across the City.” The pilot program will allow the DOT to experiment with ways to better manage sidewalk clutter, including making dedicated parking corrals and software-based management for scooter parking. The DOT has not announced which e-scooter company will be providing the scooters. Lyft, which sponsors the Citibike program, has e-scooter share programs in other cities.On June 25, 2020, the New York City Council voted to allow e-scooters that can travel up to 20 mph and bicycles with electric motors that can travel up to 25 mph across New York City. Earlier in the year, New York State had legalized the use of certain e-scooters and e-bicycles. Electric scooters, or e-scooters, became legal in New York State in August 2020 and is defined by the New York State Department of Motor Vehicles as “a type of device with handlebars, a floorboard or a seat, and an electric motor that can be powered by the electric motor and/or human power.” Bicycles with electric assist or e-bikes became legal in New York State in April 2020 and is defined as “multiple classes of bicycle with an electric motor and operable pedals” E-scooters and e-bicycles do not need to be registered. What to Know if You are Injured in an E-Scooter Crash. If you are injured while operating an e-scooter, the first thing to do is seek immediate medical attention. Call 911. Obtain the names, addresses and telephone numbers of all witnesses and any people who came to your assistance. If your injury happened from a defective condition on the roadway such as a pothole, unmarked speed bump, broken manhole cover or other dangerous street hardware, take photos of the condition and write down the specific location. Report the crash event to the police. Do not give any statements to investigators or insurance representatives before you have consulted with a qualified attorney. If you were struck by a car, taxi, truck, bus or other motor vehicle while operating a scooter, you are entitled to have your medical bills, lost wages and other expenses paid by the No-Fault insurance policy of the motor vehicle that struck you. (New York Insurance Law Article 51). If that motor vehicle did not carry the required insurance you can obtain insurance benefits from the Motor Vehicle Accident Indemnification Corporation (MVAIC. New York Insurance Law Article 52). The time to apply for No-Fault Insurance Benefits is short. Thus, people injured in motor vehicle crashes should not delay in making a claim to the responsible insurance company. If you have sustained a “serious injury” from a motor vehicle crash, you are also entitled to sue for non economic or pain and suffering money damages. (New York Insurance Law §5102(d)). As with your No-Fault claim, it is important to speak with an experienced attorney without delay so the proper steps can be taken to protect your legal rights. If you sustained a serious injury from a crash with a motor vehicle while riding, you might be entitled to sue for non-economic or pain and suffering money damages. As with your No-Fault claim, it is important to speak with an experienced manhattan bicycle injury lawyer without delay so the proper steps can be taken to protect your legal rights. The same rules apply if you are injured while riding a bicycle or if you are a pedestrian.

For more information consult Glenn Herman, a personal injury lawyer regarding scooter crashes in the New York City metro area, including Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx and Staten Island. First step should be understanding your rights in New York State as a scooter rider and citizen by speaking with an experienced and qualified Bronx scooter crash lawyer from the law firm of Herman and Herman PC who will help guide injured E-scooter and E-Bike riders, cyclists and other injury victims in the NY metro area. https://hermannyc.com Media contact: R.

A major spending scandal at the Thompson-Nicola Regional District (TNRD) has led to some difficult questions of its board of directors, which includes Sun Peaks Mayor Al Raine and Area P Director Mel Rothenburger. In a major investigative series, Kamloops This Week (KTW) reporter Jessica Wallace detailed how the regional district’s former chief administrative officer put to use his tax-payer funded credit card. Over a five year period, Sukh Gill spent over $500,000 on the card. This included $174,000 on coffee shops and restaurants, with Gill charging money on the card an average of once every two days. Former staff and outgoing directors were treated to dinners and pricey parting gifts. A number of gift cards were also purchased and working meals at high-end restaurants were numerous. On Monday, March 1, current board chair Ken Gillis announced the TNRD will commission an investigation into the spending scandal, though the timeline and scope have yet to be determined. “On behalf of myself and the entire Board of Directors, I am here to say that we take full ownership and accountability for the lack of financial oversight on this matter,” said a media statement from Gillis. None of the spending was against policy, and the TNRD has stated publicly that the spending was not the reason for Gill’s departure in February of 2020. The regional district has not explained why he left and called his departure a retirement; it has been reported that he received a $500,000-plus severance and payout upon his departure. The spending scandal has drawn widespread condemnation, with Kris Sims, director of the British Columbia Chapter of the Canadian Taxpayer Federation, calling it one of the worst examples of government misspending she has seen. “This is one of the worst examples I’ve seen when it comes to expense accounts,” said Sims. Sims said it isn’t just the “big eye-popping” spends, such as an $8,000 spent at the Bearfoot Bistro in Whistler, B.C., but rather the “constant drip” of spending. “Like every other day, more or less, this person was eating and drinking and not paying for it themselves,” said Sims. Sun Peaks Mountain Resort Municipality (SPMRM) is one of 11 member municipalities of the TNRD. Raine, who is one of 26 directors for the TNRD, has served on the board since 2010, and currently chairs the organization’s auditing committee, a position he held in 2013 and 2015 to 2017. The audit committee’s role is to approve of the hiring of an audit firm, meet with the auditor to review the plan for audits and then receive the end product. Like other TNRD staff and directors, Raine is mentioned in the reported spending. Raine appears on four line items over the five year period related to the Federation of Canadian Municipalities Annual Conference in Halifax, N.S. in 2018. Raine declined comment for the story, instead directing Sun Peaks Independent News to speak with current TNRD board chair Gillis. Gillis said that while some of the spending highlighted in the KTW investigation was lavish, in other cases, it was justified, and that one must also keep in mind that Gill also often paid for required big-ticket items, such as hotel rooms for directors or working lunch meals for directors, on his credit card. “In mea culpa mode, we obviously should have had some means in place to have the CAO’s expenses reviewed, [which] we do have now,” said Gillis. Gillis added the board was not fully aware of the scale of spending that was taking place as CAO spending was not presented in one clear place for directors to see. Asked if some of the meals that he joined Gill and others at raised a red flag, Gillis said that they did, but they never translated into policy. “I thought [that] this is a bit extreme,” said Gillis, “And I mentioned it to Mr. Gill on one occasion, but he didn’t seem to be particularly concerned about it. You think well, I guess that this is the way things are done? “There were red flags raised on certain issues at certain times, but for some reason, [they] didn’t really seem to go anywhere.” In 2018, Gillis attended a dinner at Whistler’s high end Bearfoot Bistro during the Union of Municipalities Convention. The meal cost taxpayers $8,000 and has a flashpoint for outrage around the CAO spending. Gillis said that while wine may have flowed a bit too freely, the evening was a strong networking opportunity that brought together staff with local and provincial politicians. “It was a wonderful networking opportunity,” he said. “It gave us a great chance to become more familiar with the municipal councillors [and the] issues that they were dealing with at any given time.” Gillis added that while board members were discouraged from “badgering the MLA” with specific issues, they were able to make connections and get the ball rolling on important matters. Gillis said the organization has put in a number of measures to curb spending in recent months. This includes changing the TNRD’s hospitality policy to limit drinks to two (beer or wine) at events. The regional district has also created policies where the chair or vice-chair has to sign off on CAO expenses and staff are not allowed to expense alcohol. “We have made a requirement that all Visa receipts submitted must be accompanied and backed up by the invoice,” he said. “So in other words, you can’t just submit the little tab that comes off the machine at a restaurant, you have to have the restaurant bill attached to that.” Mel Rothenberger, director for Area P, which covers Sun Peaks, said that he would like to see the rules go even further. He noted that he pushed for a cash bar this summer when the board voted for the two-drink limit at events. Rothenburger was elected in 2014 and is tied to numerous meals out with Gill, including a $523 meal at the Boathouse Restaurant in downtown Vancouver in 2015. Rothenburger was also part of a 13-member party from the regional district who stayed at the Pan Pacific between three and five nights at $399 a night during a conference. The total cost of the accommodation for the party was $6,094.66. Asked about his presence at the dinners, Rothenburger said that he kept his orders to a reasonable amount. “I’ve always tried to be careful about my spending and my expenses tend to certainly be on the lower half of the list of the totals over the years,” he said. “Two years ago, for example, I made a motion which was successful that the cost for spouses not be paid, that we clarify that spouses are not eligible to be paid when they accompany directors to various events. That was approved that it was actually reinforced last year.” Rothenburger said that he would like the TNRD to take an “open book approach” to CAO and director spending in the future. “I think if we could produce a report with details of that spending, at least quarterly, maybe even monthly, if that’s possible, that would go a great distance towards restoring public confidence and also giving us a means to pay careful attention to that spending,” he said. Moving forward, Sims of the Canadian Taxpayer Federation said things will need to be different. She said that the incident highlights the need for a strong office of the Auditor General for local government, where staff can report misspending. “We don’t have a strong, effective municipal Auditor General,” she said. “And we don’t have a team of watchdogs keeping an eye on these books. Whistleblowers have next to nowhere to call, and when they get a sense that something is going wrong in their workplace, they’re scared for their jobs.” Overall, Sims said she hopes that the event does not turn people off local government. She added local government is among the most personal forms of government and while scandals like this can result in disillusionment, it is important for citizens to demand for change and better safeguards. Since the publication of the KTW report, one board member—-Area E Director Sally Watson—has gone on record saying that the board of directors was complicit in the CAO spending over the years. Sims added it’s important for all board members to speak up on the issue. “They owe it to the people to give an explanation,” she said. “And maybe they do have an explanation. Who knows? Maybe they honestly didn’t know. Maybe they were somehow being kept in the dark. If that’s true, just say so.” Joel Barde, Local Journalism Initiative Reporter, Sun Peaks Independent News Inc.

TORONTO — Spin Master Corp. recorded meteoric growth in its digital games business in the latest quarter as users of its Toca Life World app filmed themselves playing the game and shared the videos on social media, the company’s co-CEO said Tuesday. “There was a crazy amount of people that were actually filming themselves playing in the game, and then uploading it to Tik Tok and that exposure of the game really started to increase the amount of users,” Ronnen Harary told investors during a conference call. “When you have that many people seeing the product, playing with the product and telling their friends, there's a multiplier effect.” The Canadian toymaker’s digital games revenue increased by more than 400 per cent to $31.8 million in its fourth quarter, driven by the Toca Life World platform. The app, developed by Spin Master's Swedish app studio Toca Boca, lets players imagine stories for characters in the virtual game, including kids, babies, elders and creatures, and drag the characters around the screen with their finger and make them do activities. While it's free to download the app, Spin Master makes money through the in-game purchases and upgrades. The stronger digital games revenues, also driven in part by its Sago Mini kids app subscription user base, was revealed as the company said its revenue grew 3.6 per cent compared with a year ago for the three months ended Dec. 31. The Toronto-based company said revenue for the quarter was US$490.6 million, up from US$473.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2019. Net sales were $434.3 million, down from $441.6 million a year earlier. Spin Master's shares surged to a 52-week high and were up nearly 23 per cent, or $6.64 at $35.70 in midday trading on the Toronto Stock Exchange. The company, which reports in U.S. dollars, said its fourth-quarter net income was $300,000, with no earnings per diluted share, compared with a net loss of $17.2 million or 17 cents per diluted share a year earlier. Adjusted profits were $14.6 million or 14 cents per diluted share, compared with a loss of $7.8 million or eight cents per share a year earlier. Spin Master's adjusted profit was expected to be seven cents per share on $489.2 million of net revenues, according to financial data firm Refinitiv. For the full-year, its net income decreased 29.2 per cent to $45.5 million, while adjusted profit plunged to $53.4 million or 51 cents per share from $92.8 million 90 cents per share in 2019. Harary said the toymaker made significant operational improvements and cost efficiencies in 2020 while navigating the pandemic. Meanwhile, the toymaker completed a US$50-million deal to buy the London-based maker of the Rubik's Cube in January. This report by The Canadian Press was first published March 2, 2021.

At least seven teams entered in Friday night's race had limited or no sponsorship. And Marcus Lemonis decided to offer teams a deal for their trucks.
Canadian welterweight Rory (Red King) MacDonald will make his PFL debut April 29 against David (Bulldawg) Michaud. MacDonald, a former UFC title contender and Bellator champion, signed with PFL in December 2019 but had to sit out last year as the promotion cancelled its season. The 31-year-old MacDonald (21-6-1) last fought in October 2019 when the B.C. native, who now calls Montreal home, lost his Bellator 170-pound title to Douglas (The Phenom) Lima. The 32-year-old Michaud (18-6-0) lost to Ray Cooper III last time out in the final of the 2019 PFL welterweight season. He had won seven of eight fights before that. Cooper fights in the PFL co-main event April 29 against France's Jason Ponet. The PFL said the location for the card will be announced next week. PFL 2 will also feature 2019 light-heavyweight champion Emiliano (He-Man) Sordi of Argentina against Chris Camozzi and Jordan (Big Swinging) Johnson, runner-up to Sordi, against Tom (Filthy) Lawlor in another 205-pound matchup. The Professional Fighters League, formerly known as the World Series of Fighting, works on a set schedule unlike other MMA promotions. The 2021 campaign, featuring six weight classes, starts with PFL 1 on April 23, with each fighter having two bouts during the promotion's "regular season.'' The first half of the schedule takes place April 23, 29 and May 6 with the second half set for June 10, 17 and 25. Fighters earn performance-based points, with three points for a win, plus bonus points for knockouts and submissions. They are seeded in standings for their weight class based on their point totals. The top eight in each division advance to the single-elimination playoffs in October, where fighters must fight twice and win twice in the same night to advance to the finals. The 2021 PFL World Championship is slated for New Year's Eve with the winners each earning US$1 million for being crowned PFL champions.
