I'm a cyclist in Stockholm and I hate electric scooters. They are commonly dumped in the bike lanes, sometimes standing up across them and, worse, on the ground right on the bike path.

I have to constantly get off my bike during summer months to move them away from the bike lanes, not only for myself but due to the danger to others less agile than I am. I even had a close encounter to one strewn across the ground right after a blind turn (due to summer vegetation) on a bridge crossing, if I didn't react quickly I'd have simply blasted over it going 20+ km/h... It'd be dangerous to any old person going downhill from the bridge.

It's a fucking disgrace that people feel they can just dump them on bike lanes, I can't educate everyone to set them in a proper place and I never had issues with bikes strewn across the pavement before, so electric scooters are a new danger on the road for me.

And I hate cars.
