We've got scooters all over here. It's fine.
I ride them once in a while when I can't find a bike to check-out, but I prefer the bikes. The smaller wheels on the scooter make the handling a little squirrely, especially with potholes, cracks, etc. and I also feel like motorists give me way less respect/space when I'm on a scooter. Our shared scooters all top out at 15mph, which is a little slower than the bikes.
