I suspect that scooters have similar risks as bicycles, more dangerous than cars for non-lethal injuries, less dangerous for lethal injury. And nearly all lethal injury, like 99%, directly related to cars and trucks. Cars are more lethal to drive on a highway than bikes are to ride on city streets. I bet scooter are basically the same, the biggest risk is automobiles.
