    Scooters are definitely much more dangerous than bikes. They’re much harder to control and more likely to tip over. And that’s a problem.

    Yes, the wheels on most scooters are too small in diameter to withstand anything but the smoothest terrain. One little hole or crack and you’re going over? I haven’t actually tried one so I might be wrong.
