Well for the most part, roads in Tokyo are narrow and shared by bikes, and on residential streets there are are also no separated sidewalks (pedestrians walk on the shoulder). Some larger roads have a road-based bike lane plus a separated sidewalk and some have a separated sidewalk with a sidewalk-based bike lane. You are allowed to ride the scooters on the road and road-based bike lanes. This is consistent with rules for other types of vehicles such as e-bikes and it mostly works well. I just wish the speed limiter was 25km/h (same as e-bikes) instead of 15km/h, because it's being passed by all other vehicles constantly that feels a bit sketchy.
