People operating electric scooters recklessly do not get a pass because some people drive their cars like idiots.

In my experience it is the majority of users here in London. They feel like quasi pedestrians so they run lights, use pavements and operate without a driving license (as required by law). Given at the moment there are so few of them relatively speaking the coming epidemic of scooters will be a disaster for pedestrians

I'm not saying they get a pass, I'm saying that if you're also not outraged at the way cars are operated you've got a double standard. It's very trendy to hate on scooters.
