The sidewalks are really dangerous where I am, where they are super uneven, have “artistic” curves, and trees that are overhanging really low so like will hit my body.

I go max 15 MPH on my escooter and if I hear a ding ding I jump onto the sidewalk and go a bit slower until you guys pass, since I’m slower and can dismount easier it only makes sense for me to make room. I figure as long as I make room it “shouldn’t” be a problem.

But just wondering if there are any bike riders that are just like shaking their fist at escooter riders.

EDIT: USA!

    I don’t think they’re talking about a rascal. And a vespa type would be in the car lane, not sidewalk.

        Are you talking aboit motorbike vespas? Because if they’re OK the pavement, then they shouldn’t be allowed to have one. Unless vespa also does scooters/bicycles.

          It was a moped, the normal street legal kind. They should not have been on the sidewalk at all. The person was definitely in the wrong, but they were still doing it.
