I really don't understand why shared scooters aren't allowed in the bike lanes.
We have infrastructure for pedestrians, bikes and cars. It's widely accepted to not mix modes that are very different, as it isn't safe and causes conflicts (i.e. why separate bike infrastructure is good in busy areas, and why we have sidewalks here).
It seems the speed of travel and size of a scooter is closest to a bike, and thus they should share infrastructure and follow similar rules.
