scooter rider
Kick-propelled street traveler
A scooter rider is someone who rides a scooter—either the motorized kind common in urban transit or the kick-powered variety popular with children.
The term appears in traffic discussions, insurance contexts, and debates about sidewalk etiquette: Scooter riders should wear helmets.
With the rise of electric rental scooters, scooter riders have become a fixture of city streets and a frequent target of pedestrian complaints.
