Where i live right now, when i go for a walk or a run. Kids will fly past me going about 30kph with no warning or no helmets either. There are these 2 girls that ride an electric scooter together and they blow past stop signs. Im very surprised that no one on these things has been killed on them yet. I also live on a busy road because its one of 2 entrances to get into my neighborhood.
Ya I love all these things personally. Quick to get around, and so fun!
But yes, what you said has been my experience but I’m generally in the middle of nowhere. When I go by people I say hello and move very slowly and leave a good amount if room.
I was walking to a commercial building a couple months ago and WOOSH! this kid on an e-scooter going down hill, from behind, top speed, passes within a foot of me. It was a huge walking path with nobody else on it. What if I reached in my pocket and he clipped my elbow? Or I turned suddenly? Kids just don’t have road sense for motorized vehicles in public.
I hate these things with a passion.
