Surprisingly not as common as they used to be a few years back. I think our fatasses are dying off, thats why mexico is fattest nation now kek.

You're all too fat to walk because of your own gluttony and laziness? Some honesty for a change.

Btw, Europe combined is richer than the u.s.

Very common OP. I see them every day in Virginia. The most common place to see them is Walmart. By the time you spend an hour in Walmart you see about 5 or 6 of them going by.

Much less common than you've been led to believe. You really only see them now and then at groceries and Wal-Mart, but it's not a guarantee.

My mom rides the same model fat scooter as the three in the back, and has since the ripe old age of 55 (she's 61 now)

Remarkably common in the middle of the day at Big Box stores. Like, 5-6 at a time.

But that's Cripple and Fat Unemployed Prime Time.
>>
>>68440074
Ohh trust me, they don't. And you can't criticize anyone for being a fat waste of resources either because they have a constitutional right to be a fatass welfare balloon. I wish we could have lardass rehabilitation programs to save people from this, but its not allowed.
Like i said, we can only wait for them to die off naturally.

I see them at Wal Mart but that's about it

>>

grocery stores used to offer them to elderly and otherwise less-mobile people.
but now that i think about it, it's been quite a while since ive seen them used at the grocery store.


as for private use, it's generally the elderly.
and only sometimes someone whose so obese that they gave up on walking.

on the west coast, only mexicans shop at walmart.

especially the pacific northwest, pic related is our beast.
it's not so easy to get out of your mobility scooter to load a box of boxes into your scooter.

Maybe it's because I live in Connecticut, but I've only seen like 1 or 2 of them. It wasn't because the person was fat either, just old.

If you aren't elderly then you really need to stop being such a fat fuck

I live in Louisiana, and I honestly don't see it that much. Lots of fat people but not 600+ pound scooter rider-tier. If you just mean people who are fat then yeah, that's everywhere.

>>68442201
That's the cleanest walmart I have ever seen.
>>
>>68438954

I always see a few when I go to Wal-Mart. In big cities you see people riding down the sidewalks on them, in smaller towns it's rarer.

Once in Phoenix, I saw a pickup truck stopped in the middle of the street with a mobility scooter embeded in the grill. Apparently some fatass decided to scooter across a busy street with no regard to oncoming traffic.

The fatass was nowhere to be seen, however...

This is a photo of the invasion of Iraq. Posse Comitatus requires no military force to be used within the United States like this, so they're not very common.

I live in Kansas and I've never seen one outside of a walmart.

>>68438954

I've only seen them in Walmarts, and blacker neighborhoods. I worked in an upscale grocery chain and the only people that ever used them were the elderly.
>>
>>68438954

Depends on where you go. Shitholes like Wal-Mart are just chock full of 300+ pound land whales. You can see dozens in the span of an hour. Obviously you don't see very many in quality retailers or outdoor areas.
>>
I Fucking hate "Disabled" privilege. They are able to park the closest you can possibly be to the store, walk 20 feet, then hop on a fucking scooter. Obviously elders excluded.

I see them from time to time in Walmarts and lower-end grocery stores. They're not quite as common as you'd think (but then again I don't live in the deep south), but they're around.
>>
>>68444173

They're very common in the Wal Marts in central Ohio. In fact our local Wal Wart has a waiting bench set aside for people expecting a return of their "Rascal" because all the others are out.

There are two realities that burgers need to acknowledge: 1. A record number of new approvals for social security disability occurred in the past decade, mostly among 55-65 year olds, and 2. the largest cohort of people not participating in the workforce is within the 55-65 year olds.

You only need to be 50 to qualify for AARP membership. What do you think the AARP lobbies hardest for these days? (hint: "retired or disabled" people have lots of time to think about benefits)
>>
>>68438954
Not that common, m8. You see them sometimes when you go out in public, but it's not as widespread

I'll see maybe one every two or three weeks. Pretty uncommon. Literally never seen a landwhale flotilla like the one in your pic in my life.
>>
>>68438954
They're quite prevalent in large department stores, where they're provided to obese shoppers. I've been campaigning locally to require that riders wear dayglo orange bicycle helmets for their own safety (and ameliorating store liability).
>>
>>68438954
pretty rare, and I actually live in the deep south.

Mexico actually has a higher obesity level than America.
>>
>>68438954
not very common where i live although i did see some land whale rolling down the highways shoulder a few years back.
2bh id roll myself right off a bridge if i was that fat
>>
>>68438954

It depends completely on what state you live in. If you live in some hillbilly state (like West Virginia, or Pennsylvania) where women have nothing to do all day but eat chips and watch TV, you'll see these things quite often. I've lived in NYC for ten years and never seen one.
>>
>>68438954
Extremely rare, and usually used by old people, not fat people

you see them in super stores at least once every time you go shopping.

other than that you'd rarely see them crossing the street at a red light. no one likes them, and they're 95% of the time white people.
