Whew! It’s a good thing trucks never go through cross walks or across curb cuts to get into parking lots and drive throughs.

The only reason people ride scooters on the sidewalks is because our infrastructure is severely lacking and you get stuck “sharing” a lane with a 6000+lb truck.

You aren’t wrong and neither are they.

across curb cuts to get into parking lots and drive throughs.

Generally not faster than scooter speed anyway though.

And they don't like to share. I had to flip off a driver for almost running me over today
