If only city councils would spend as much time and effort on ensuring the safety of car traffic as they do on regulating scooters.
Nobody cares about scooters. You are completely dumb , also Spain is not America. We are civilized here

And yet you can't stop running over elderly people with e scooters, interesting.
yeah fuck scooters, they are no solution and put pedestrians in constant danger.
Only if they're forced on sidewalks.
Build some actual, good, wide bike paths, then they can be shared with scooters.even on if they are bike lanes they use drive on sidewalk constantly.
If there are safe cycle paths, people will use them. Of course there are always idiots, but scooters are absolutely the only type of vehicle that people use irresponsibly, amirite?
Eh, I’ve been living in Munich for a few months now, there are rentable e-scooters here and I’ve not had one issue with them as a pedestrian. Although Munich has a lot of bike paths and biking is a very common mode of transport…
Last time I was in Munich I almost got hit by those 3 times.
Maybe stay off the bike paths?
