From what I see now, 99% of the two wheel clueless clods are on e-bikes and pogo-stick scooters. The latter's whole purpose is to clown around with your friends.
A couple years ago I had a shoulder crash with one of them on a narrow sidewalk, going to a bridge only used by cars. He was not going single file.
The last fatal here was 2 years ago by a new e-bike user who should have known better of risks. He was a senior fireman. I guess he didn't expect the trailer behind the 5 ton truck.
Many buying e-bikes are not graduating from pedal bikes, IMO. Or maybe they haven't been on bikes in years.
