Not the same type of scooter, but here in Amsterdam they put them on the bike path a few decades ago. And it's a major nuisance for cyclists. They are not compatible modes of transport and it's dangerous.

So the city passed a new law last year to start transitioning them back to the road.

What makes them incompatible? If they’re approximately the same size and speed I don’t see a reason they can’t share the same paths.
