Sure, but scooters don't move very fast (slower than bikes), and e-bikes are usually limited to 28mph. So yeah, getting hit by one of those is still dangerous, but nothing like getting hit by a 6000-pound SUV. Being on any kind of moving vehicle will always have some element of danger to it: our bodies just weren't designed for traveling very fast and colliding with concrete or other hard surfaces. But the momentum carried by any kind of car is far beyond that carried by someone on a scooter or e-bike. Also, those small vehicles don't take up remotely as much space as cars, and their riders have far better visibility, plus their riders are also exposed to a high degree of risk in a collision, unlike a car driver who can easily mow down cyclists without any injury at all.
