Taking an idea from cycling advocates, I encourage people to ask, when they encounter reckless or inconsiderate scooter use, "Do I want this jackass in a car instead, being just as inconsiderate or reckless?" It's tough because people take cars for granted. They aren't ordinarily conscious of how big and dangerous cars are and how far we go out of our way to accommodate them, so it's hard to sell them on the value of mitigating that cost.
