I became an e-scooter guy in June.
And I'll say, my experience has been that 99% of drivers are reasonable people, but that 1% I've encountered who are actively hostile to people on two wheels are heckin' scary. Scary enough that I've modified my scooting habits on the off chance that I run into another one.
Drivers are actively hostile to infrastructure that supports those of us on two wheels, though, at least outside of cities. That's undeniable. They'd rather get where they're going 60 seconds earlier than give up half a lane so cyclists can get where they're going safely.
