nah dawg they are super annoying as it is the people who ride them are the problem. as someone who bikes everyday, statistically i will have to deal with some scooter dbag dude (always a dude) not following the rules and making the road unsafe for everyone, whether it’s pedestrians, cyclists, or drivers. never once heard them use their bell or signal.
the kid example is kind of grasping at straws, but in my experience, scooter rider dudes are the absolute worst sort of people who make commuting unsafe for everyone. everyday i have to deal with some jackass acting unsafe while i’m cycling like a normal person following the rules.
