I'm surprise they haven't tried old school kick powered scooters with an additional electronic GPS unit:

Or something like this: Micro PedalFlowhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zfIzZo6ouDo

It would reduce the speed concerns too.

The speed might be a concern, but it's a selling point too. As is the lack of effort. Plus there's a goofiness value in kick-scooting.
