I've driven around Queens a little and bicyclists, even e-bikes, seem to be both rarer and more law abiding than the delivery people on scooters. I haven't driven much, but every close shave I've had there was with a scooter. They're lawless - they ride on sidewalks, go the wrong way on one-way streets, pass cars on the right, pass you then immediately grind to a halt because they need to make a left turn but apparently needed to get ahead of you first. It would be a relief to see them get some consequences and hopefully start to be safer.
