Is actually agree with that, but given how careless scooter riders are in my area in laying the blame almost 100% on them.
From what I’ve witnessed they’re often arrogant and pay little attention to their surroundings, often having close calls simply by shooting off a path to cross a road without paying attention.
I’m neutral on cars vs other modes of transport, so I’m not trying to favour one side or another, but each user or group has to take responsibility for their shortcomings, and the number of bad acting scooters is cyclists as a percentage of their respective groups is far too high.
I’d trust a car driver to be attentive more than I’d ever trust a scooter rider or cyclist.
Inattentive car drivers kill people. Inattentive scooter and cyclists get themselves hurt (in general). A world without cars is simply a safer world.
And with proper infrastructure the cyclist/scooter problem virtually disappears. People moving fast obviously have to be separate from pedestrians. If all the space wasn’t taken up by cars that would be easy to do as well.

Simply from my own observations.
