No! Really! This photo of the “Street Hoover” taken by jaqian is made for keeping the streets clean. I couldn’t find any more info on it though. I can almost make out the manufacturer’s name at the top, but not enough to located their home page to get some details. Oh well, maybe you’ll have better luck.

    I remember seeing an article about something similar to that in paris, where a large portion of the population owns pets. It’s basically a “pooper hoover”.

    Hrm… yeah… I don’t think I wanna ride in that thing after all. I was thinking it just picked up dust, gum wrappers or cigarettes. Putting out and smellin’ like poop is not a good time.

    Well it can’t be for hoovering poop as there are no pets in EuroDisney, which is where I took this photo. Probably for sucking up all the leaves and paper wrappers etc.

    Ahhh, cool! I’d ride it in that case. Thanks for giving us a little more insight as to what we were looking at!

    Had another look at the name. Under the seat when picture is viewed large you can just make out what I think is “galopin”. Hope that helps.
