Yeah ok.

The bike shop I frequent was selling e-scooters for a while, but stopped because of ethical concerns - customers incurring grievous injuries.

Those were high-end, well made and compliant e-scooters as well.

Its not only the riders, but risks to pedestrians as well. Someone in my city died after being hit by a drunken tourist on an e-scooter.

IMO bikes, electric or not, are the superior format.
