Uber-backed e-scooter startup Lime enters Japan after Korea exit
![E-scooter startup Lime has launched its service in some of Tokyo’s most densely populated neighborhoods E-scooter startup Lime has launched its service in some of Tokyo’s most densely populated neighborhoods](https://cdn4.premiumread.com/?url=https://www.japantimes.co.jp/japantimes/uploads/images/2024/08/20/416739.jpg?v=3.1&w=1000&q=100&f=jpg&t=1.2)
Uber Technologies-backed Lime is entering Japan’s growing e-scooter ride market in a foray that pits the San Francisco-based startup against homegrown Luup.
"We’re starting small,” Lime CEO Wayne Ting said in an interview. "We want to grow slowly with the city and really earn the trust of local regulators and city officials.”
Lime’s entry in Japan is the latest sign of the country’s belated acceptance of the sharing economy, thanks in part to years of dialogue between Luup and regulators, local governments and police. The e-scooter market is expanding in Japan, in contrast to slowdowns elsewhere, as cities impose tougher restrictions or outright bans to deal with abandoned e-scooters clogging sidewalks.
Japan’s government, which for years stonewalled the likes of Uber and Airbnb, was slow to allow shared e-scooter rides. It instead set up regulations requiring riders to park in designated charging ports and abide by local traffic rules, including lower speed restrictions on sidewalks. Once those restrictions were in place, it then passed a new traffic law doing away with helmet and license requirements for e-scooter users last year, clearing a major hurdle to growth.
To meet the regulations, Lime negotiated with local government officials and partners to set up ports, a task that took 6 to 12 months. It also modified its e-scooters: It added turn signals, installed slower 6 kilometer-per-hour riding modes, shortened the handlebar length and re-positioned bells.
But the country’s clear industry framework was a big incentive for entry, according to a spokesperson of the company, which retreated from South Korea in 2022. Lack of regulatory clarity there opened doors for rivals and the resulting competition ate into margins, according to Ting.
"The last thing we want to do is grow too fast and make you feel like it’s a nuisance,” Ting said, noting that Lime’s fleet includes seated scooters. "Our intention over time is to grow throughout the Tokyo metropolitan area and potentially even look at broader Japanese opportunities.”
Lime, in which Uber held a roughly 29% stake late last year, is expanding even as its rivals in the U.S. have struggled to stay afloat as interest rates rise and easy venture-capital money dries up. Lime had a valuation of about $510 million in 2020 when Uber led a $170 million investment round, Bloomberg reported. That figure "seems outdated,” Ting said, adding that Lime has turned profitable since then. The company reported adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization of more than $90 million in 2023.
"We’d love to be a major transportation product for Japanese people in the course of the coming years,” Ting said.

The Sports Report: Will a tight division race be a blessing for the Dodgers?

Howdy, I’m your host, Iliana Limón Romero, filling in for Houston Mitchell, who is probably preparing for Hello Kitty Night Monday at Dodger Stadium. Let’s get right to the news.

From Mike DiGiovanna : The journey is just as important as the destination in the eyes of Miguel Rojas , which is why the veteran shortstop isn’t fretting over the fact that the Dodgers are in a dogfight for the National League West for the first time since 2021.
The Dodgers cruised to division titles the past two seasons, winning the NL West by 22 games in 2022 and 16 games in 2023, and what good did that do them?
Thrust into high-intensity games for the first time in weeks, the 100-win Dodgers were swept by 84-win Arizona in the NL Division Series last October, and their 111-win team lost to 89-win San Diego in a four-game NLDS in 2022.
Rojas believes the stress and intensity of a six-week tussle with the Padres and Diamondbacks for playoff spots will make the Dodgers far more battle-tested for October than they were the past two seasons.

From the Associated Press : Ramón Laureano homered for the second straight game and the Atlanta Braves wrapped up a 10-game road trip with a 3-1 victory over the Angels on Sunday.
Laureano continued to give the Angels trouble, just like he did during his six previous seasons in Oakland. The right fielder gave Atlanta a 2-0 lead in the fourth inning when he drove a curveball from Jack Kochanowicz (1-3) 442 feet over the wall in left-center.

From Bill Plaschke : The matter is complicated, but the message should be simple.
When the corrupt Olympic gods show up at Jordan Chiles ’ doorstep demanding her bronze floor exercise medal, the UCLA gymnast should send them off with three words.
Go to hell.
It’s her medal, she won it fairly , she won it definitively, it doesn’t belong in this controversy, it doesn’t belong in Romania, it belongs in only one place, now and forever.
Draped around her neck.
The International Olympic Committee wants so badly to strip her of the medal , it already gave a duplicate bronze to Romanian gymnast Ana Barbosu on Friday, thus declaring the sole and rightful owner.
This is five-ringed robbery, an Olympic-sized heist, and UCLA’s Chiles should not stand still while her achievement is blatantly mugged.

From Gary Klein : That tightness in quarterback Matthew Stafford’s hamstring ? The twinge Rams coach Sean McVay described as a “little something” initially?
It’s looming as a larger issue.
Stafford was sidelined for most of the last two practices and McVay said Sunday that he was “not sure” if the 36-year-old Stafford would practice this week.
“He can throw and do some of those things,” McVay said during a videoconference with reporters. “As far as just some of the movement, if he’s feeling good, we haven’t decided that yet.

![limon tours japan Chris Smith, director of equipment operations for the Chargers, inspects helmets at the team’s practice facility.](https://ca-times.brightspotcdn.com/dims4/default/1c2e09f/2147483647/strip/true/crop/4032x3024+0+0/resize/1200x900!/quality/75/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcalifornia-times-brightspot.s3.amazonaws.com%2F75%2F28%2F58fc370c4ae881305c465ac7a159%2Fchris-smith-director-of-equipment-operations-chargers.jpg)
From Sam Farmer : Chris Smith didn’t just saunter into his position as director of equipment operations for the Chargers . His career started at the ground floor.
As in the grass under his feet.
“We had a blank grass field at UC San Diego, and Sid said, ‘Oh, if you didn’t know, you’re painting the fields out there for training camp,’” said Smith, 58, referring to legendary equipment manager Sid Brooks, who was with the Chargers from 1973 to 2000 before a five-year stint at USC.
“I had never painted a football field in my life. So he handed me a schematic of a football field, and I had a group of four high school kids that were there to help me, and I had to figure it out. … And we did it.”
That was a lifetime ago for Smith, known around the Chargers facility as “Smitty.” He and assistant equipment manager Kevin Duddy have been with the franchise more than 30 years, and now oversee an entire wing of “The Bolt” — the team’s new training facility in El Segundo — that’s dedicated to equipment storage.
The wing is next to the locker room, and players drift in and out, clearly at home and at ease with the staff.
“These guys are like my uncles away from home,” safety Derwin James said. “I won’t even call them like they work for us. It’s like family, man. These guys are first class with everything.”

From Benjamin Royer : A year after his younger brother claimed AVP Manhattan Beach Open glory, it was Trevor Crabb ’s turn to hoist another pier plaque.
Crabb and his partner, Theo Brunner won Sunday’s final 21-18, 21-18 against U.S. Olympic pair Andy Benesh and Miles Partain , never losing in six matches as the first seed. Crabb grabbed his fourth Open winin five years and his first with Brunner as his partner.
“They just came back from the Olympics, and obviously we didn’t make it,” Crabb said. “[We] wanted a little redemption, and knew that deep down, we’re still the best team out here on any given day.”
The Crabb brothers met in Sunday morning’s Open semifinal — a rematch of the 2023 final . Taylor Crabb and his partner, Taylor Sander , pushed Trevor Crabb and Brunner to three sets for the first time all weekend.
“He ruined the four-peat,” Trevor Crabb said. “Today, I got the revenge.”
Unlike the men’s final, Olympic redemption was on the table later in the afternoon.

From Andrés Soto : Twelve-year-old Spencer Gordon was having a sleepover with his best friend, Jared, in his Northridge home on Jan. 17, 1994, when he was woken up by what he could only describe as an unrelenting boom.
“Deafening,” Gordon recalls now, 30 years later. “You couldn’t hear your own scream.”
Gordon saw Jared being flung across his bedroom as it shook, ricocheting off the walls. He tried to run away, but couldn’t find his footing as the seismic force kept knocking him down. His mirror and dresser both fell in front of his door, leaving him and Jared trapped until his dad broke the door down with his shoulder, reached over the dresser, and grabbed the kids with one arm and pulled them out as they rode out the rest of the 6.7 earthquake huddled together in the hallway.
The floor was littered with broken glass. Everything that was in the kitchen cabinets — dishes, glasses, pots and pans — fell out and became a two-foot high pile of debris. The water and power were out for six days. The swimming pool was half empty.
“Everything that could’ve fallen, fell and broke,” Gordon, now 42, recalls. “It was just absolutely terrifying.”

Kelsey Plum made four three-pointers and finished with 18 points, Tiffany Hayes scored 11 and Jackie Young had 10 for Las Vegas (17-9).
