Scooters and bikes are not viable when it's literally freezing outside, especially with bad weather conditions. Unless there is transportation literally right out of my door, I would sooner keep my eyes on the road and drive myself. Trains and buses don't stop at the gas station on my way into work to grab my drink for the day, and if they do, they aren't waiting for me. If I need to run some errands, like go to the doctor or run to the hardware store, that is significantly less convenient with public transportation. I just got 4 bags of softener salt the other day that totaled 160 lbs. Not a chance I would try to lug that on a bike or carry it on and off a bus or train. I'm not saying I wouldn't use it sometimes, and have in cities like Minneapolis and New York, but I was visiting and either didn't have a car or wasn't in condition to drive so worked around it. Again, they can coexist , but fighting electric vehicles of all things is a dumb fight.
