That's not wasted time though, is it? It's a chance for a bit of exercise, a bit of shopping, to see your local communities.

I live in a nice part of town; I work in a nice part of town; but the straight-line walking connection I have to make in the middle is in the bad part of town. I'd rather not.

It's possible that's exactly what you're doing on the scooter. Maybe your destination is a local establishment to meet up with friends and you don't want to be a sweaty mess upon arrival.

Riding a kick scooter is pretty good exercise too.
