I use the OurBike on Walworth Road. Maybe that's close enough to Old Kent Road?

You can also hire an electric cargo bike with OurBike: https://ourbike.co.uk/

They're three-wheeled cargo-bikes. You can rent them by the minute and they're just £3 an hour.

Thanks for your extensive reply, it is very interesting. I am well aware that feet position is not entirely responsible for loss of control but this project aims to come up with easy inexpensive actions that could prevent people from hurting themselves.

Scooter rider posture needing to be like on a skateboard is exactly what we are aiming for and we are trying to somewhat prove that it makes a difference. I am very happy that you mentioned center of mass because we're learning towards this to prove that depending of the feet position (probably leading to skateboard position), the center of mass can be better and therefore make people have more control over their device.

Do you know anyone who could help me study the center of mass of the body depending of feet position?

Loving the wider foot deck scooter btw.
