Most scooter riders are teenagers young lads/girls who don't see the dangers and secondly these people who say bikes are dangerous see scooter/'proper' bikes as the same thing.

I had a lad on on a Peugeot scooter of Friday evening on my way home from work following me so close I couldn't see him in my mirrors although I could hear him, then at every junction/set of lights he would pull up and rev and rev and rev. Eventually I moved over and just let him go but he was undertaking just before junctions then swerving to the outside to overtake, all in 3/4 lengths and a t-shirt.
