Yeah it is a bit dicey as either a pedestrian or a rider when it's busy. Nice for a leisurely ride but maybe not so much if its just your mode of transport for getting places.

The scooters feel even dicier - I enjoy them and they're super useful for a medium trip but it never feels right being on the footpath with pedestrians, and they feel way less safe than bikes to ride around cars. They'd benefit from dedicated lanes too
