I'm loathe to advocate for cars but, seeing as you asked - when you're in a car and you have an accident you don't get smeared all over the road like a meat crayon because... the much heavier vehicle protects you.

That said, bikes are far superior in terms of safety. Larger wheels, larger wheel base, more stable load configuration, reduced threat to pedestrians in some ways.

Never drove a motorcycle? Idiot.

Ex-wife worked the ER for awhile. They called scooters and motorcycles "donorcycles" because once they scrape you off the pavement, donating organs is all you got left.

probably not a lot of public stats on e.g. deaths per mile with those scoots. though i bet the companies have that.

the cars do have some safety systems, vs zipsquat for the scoots. my impression is that your average scooter rider may be less cautious and less aware than your average cyclist, at least in my town, for what that's worth.
